Klaus is a stooge of Putin.* Regardless of what USAToday says a nuclear summit isn't going to be run according to the wishes of Putin and Obama. *Klaus has reversed Havel's policy of avoiding many countries like China. His first major visit was to Russia[citation needed] and in 2006 he hosted Vladimir Putin. Klaus received the 2007 Pushkin Medal for the promotion of Russian culture from Putin due to his use of Russian with Putin and with Russian diplomats.[27][28] Klaus has tried to cultivate friendly relationships with Russia and regularly defends it.
