President Vladimir Putin honoured bass singer Ildar Abdrazakov at the Russian Federation National Awards on Wednesday.
Abdra, a pal of Gergiev and the Netrebkos, told Putin: ‘”Vladimir Vladimirovich, thanks to you, I started playing hockey.’
Putin said: ‘Today’s event, the award ceremony, is just one stage of our common work. We need to work in all directions.’
