Karin Kneissl, former head of the Austrian Foreign Ministry and head of the GORKI center at St. Petersburg State University, paid compliments to Russian President Vladimir Putin. This was reported by TASS.
“He is a very intelligent man and also a gentleman. I would also like to note that he understands human nature very well,” he said at the My Petersburg exhibition.
According to Kneissl, in order to manage people and lead their efforts, it is necessary to understand human nature very well. He emphasized that Putin has created a good team around him and that choosing the right candidates is a talent.
The former Austrian Foreign Minister added that the Russian President had changed the country in the most impressive way. “I feel a great respect for a person who was able to change the country so much,” he concluded.
Kneissl left Austria amid a wave of criticism over his ties to Russia. It happened Kneissl is known to have recently moved to the Russian Federation and is planning to build a house in the east of the country. She will also not be issued a Russian passport because having dual citizenship is the same as “being married to two people”.
