THIS is the unprecedented moment Russian tyrant Vladimir Putin gives the public a glimpse of his decadent Kremlin pad - which boasts chandeliers and a grand piano.
The extravagant dig is decked out with luxurious architectural features, gold-rimmed mirrors and an ironic nod to a former Russian Emperor.

The sudden revelation comes as a strange shock - as for years only his tight inner circle of cronies have been granted access to the swanky flat.
But his boujee living quarters which were previously shrouded in mystery have now been revealed in a bombshell video.
In the bizarre footage, blood-thirsty Putin is seen walking through his plush apartment with a reporter.
The two are heard talking outside the gold-adorned doors before the Russian dictator opens up his lavish living quarters to the world.
The never-before-seen crib is littered with indulgent decorations, such as a white grand piano which sits in the corner of the room - which Putin claims he rarely plays.
Vile Vlad also tells the reporter that the pad is nearby his office, making for a quick commute.
The grand room has gilded walls, cosy sofas and exotic-looking chandeliers hanging from the high ceiling - a sharp contrast to the hellish conditions his soldiers endure.
Ironically, a large portrait of Russian Emperor Alexander III is sat on a desk when the two open the doors on the left side.
Dubbed "The Peacemaker" the Russian Tsar fought no major wars during his reign - a far cry from Putin's rule.

In further footage - which are extracts form a longer interview with Putin set to release on May 4 - the Russian despot shows the so-called journalist a library, two bedrooms and a small "home church".
In March 2023, the Russian president said in an interview that he hosted Chinese leader Xi Jinping for informal parts of negotiations in the very same room.
He claimed that they "had a working lunch" before inviting the "chairman, as a friend" to move to the room.
The Russian dictator said during the interview that he spends "a lot of time" there, often working late nights, and so decided to move there.
The revelation of Putin's deluxe apartment marks a harsh contrast to the brutal living conditions of those fighting in the war in Ukraine.

Sick Vlad's bloody meatgrinder has already cost 250,000 Russian soldiers' lives since his invasion in February 2022, according to the Ministry of Defence.
The MoD said that Russia has about 900,000 casualties in total so far, and that Putin was "likely to prioritise their military objectives over the lives of Russian soldiers".
The extraordinary revelation comes after leaked footage in 2024 which showed that the Russian tyrant owned a £1billion clifftop Black Sea palace.
An investigation also showed that the leader's extravagant palace had undergone an expensive revamp to get rid of its sordid strip club.
The Kremlin denied the pleasure palace belongs to Mad Vlad, but an investigation by French newspaper Le Monde showed that the tyrant's bodyguards were frequently in the vicinity.
Russian independent media outlets and now-dead opposition leader Alexei Navalny had triggered a scandal by revealing the existence of the Gelendzhik pad.
And in May last year, a mystery fire gutted part of Putin's mountain palace said to be home to a sprawling nuclear bunker for his secret family.
The inferno ripped through a building at the Altai Mountain bolthole - where Putin once entertained former Italian premier Silvio Berlusconi.
The new footage of Putin's plush apartment comes as his bloody war in Ukraine rages on.

Just recently, he was accused of recruiting Ukrainian children and brainwashing them into becoming suicide bombers.
The desperate Russian despot has been offering teenagers and vulnerable civilians cash in exchange for their lives, according to Ukrainian security services.
It also comes as the US and Ukraine finally signed the historic minerals deal in a heavy blow to furious Putin.
The long-awaited agreement blames Putin for the three-year-long war, spares Ukraine from payback and will even allow Kyiv to join the EU.
The US and Ukraine signed the minerals deal two months after it was derailed by Trump and Zelensky's Oval Office bust-up.

'Putin shouldn't have a veto': TD says triple lock debated must avoid misinformation

Fine Gael TD Catherine Callaghan has said the current debate over changes to Ireland's triple lock needs to be grounded in facts and not misinformation. Ms Callaghan is a member of the Oireachtas Committee on Defence and National Security. Advertisement Ms Callaghan, a TD for Carlow-Kilkenny and a former member of the Defence Forces who served in Lebanon, has said that under the current triple lock system, countries like Russia and leaders like Vladamir Putin have the power to veto Ireland's participation in peacekeeping. 'We don't believe that Putin or others should have a veto on whether our troops can be deployed on peacekeeping missions. 'Currently members of the UN Security Council bind Ireland's hands on peacekeeping missions, when these are decisions that should be made by our Government and the Dáil." Ms Callaghan pointed to the fact that no new peacekeeping missions have been approved by the UN Security Council since 2014. Advertisement "This has meant that Irish peacekeepers have in some instances been delayed from engaging in missions to disrupt human smuggling and trafficking and maritime drug seizure operations," she added. 'This shows the absolute need to reform the UN Security Council which Ireland will continue to push for, but with that unlikely in the immediate future, we need to act in our own interests as an independent country in accordance with International Law and the UN Charter. 'In recent days, I have heard opponents of the proposals currently being examined by the Oireachtas Committee on Defence and National Security claim the UN General Assembly can approve peacekeeping missions and there is no need for a green light from the UN Security Council. 'But this is simply not the reality of how the system has worked over the last seven decades. While the General Assembly can make recommendations about deployments, it cannot compel countries to act. Advertisement 'Only once in history has the General Assembly invoked a Resolution to recommend a peacekeeping operation - and that was nearly 70 years ago when it established the first UN Emergency Force in the Middle East in 1956." Ms Callaghan is a member of the Oireachtas Committee on Defence and National Security. Ms Callaghan added: 'The context back then was absolutely unique where it had the consent of the parties involved - Egypt, France, Israel, and the UK - and the recommendation was in line with the priorities of four of the permanent members of the Security Council. 'The reality for the last nearly 70 years has been that every Defence Forces peacekeeping deployment has only ever taken place on the basis of a Security Council mandate. This underscores the rationale for removing the Putin veto." Ireland Neutrality 'completely unaffected' by triple lock... Read More She said removing the triple lock has "nothing whatsoever to do with military neutrality". Advertisement 'We value our neutrality and we are remaining militarily neutral. Ireland was militarily neutral for decades before the advent of the term 'triple lock' around the time of the Nice and Lisbon Treaty debates and it will continue to be neutral if these changes are passed through the Oireachtas and become law.' In an interview with in April, Minister of State Neale Richmond said: "Ireland's triple lock mechanism for deploying troops abroad is an archaic tool that is hindering our ability to be a global force for good whilst surrendering our sovereign decision making to the veto powers of the five permanent members of the UN Security Council. "Given a UN mandate can be vetoed by any of the five permanent Security Council members, we are effectively giving the likes of Russia and China a veto of where and when we send our own troops."

Deadly Russian attack hits eastern Ukrainian city of Kharkiv

The first wave on Ukraine's second-largest city was a large Russian drone-and-missile attack in the early hours. It killed at least three people and wounded 21 others, according to local officials. I received a report from our team on their visit and meetings in the United States. Defense support for Ukraine, sanctions against Russia, diplomatic prospects, as well as the defense of freedom and countering Russian disinformation. We gave our partners a detailed overview of… — Volodymyr Zelenskyy / Володимир Зеленський (@ZelenskyyUa) June 6, 2025 In the afternoon, Russia dropped aerial bombs on the city centre, killing at least one person and wounding five more, Kharkiv's mayor said. The warring sides also accused each other of trying to sabotage a planned prisoner exchange, nearly a week after Kyiv embarrassed the Kremlin with a surprise drone attack on military airfields deep inside Russia. Saturday's barrage – the latest in near daily widescale attacks on Ukraine – included aerial glide bombs that have become part of a fierce Russian onslaught in the all-out war, which began on February 24 2022. Ukraine's air force said that Russia struck with 215 missiles and drones overnight, and Ukrainian air defences shot down 87 drones and seven missiles. Russian strikes hit a residential building in Kharkiv (AP) Several other areas in Ukraine were also hit, including the regions of Donetsk, Dnipropetrovsk, Odesa, and the city of Ternopil, Ukrainian foreign minister Andrii Sybiha said in an X post. 'To put an end to Russia's killing and destruction, more pressure on Moscow is required, as are more steps to strengthen Ukraine,' he said. The Russian defence ministry said its forces carried out a night-time strike on Ukrainian military targets, including ammunition depots, drone assembly workshops, and weaponry repair stations. There was no comment from Moscow on the reports of casualties in Kharkiv. Kharkiv's mayor, Ihor Terekhov, said that the strikes also damaged 18 apartment buildings and 13 private homes. Mr Terekhov said that it was 'the most powerful attack' on the city since the start of Russia's full-scale invasion. At least four people were killed (AP) Kharkiv's regional governor, Oleh Syniehubov, said the morning's attacks saw two districts in the city struck with three missiles, five aerial glide bombs and 48 drones. Among the wounded were two children, a baby boy and a 14-year-old girl, he added. Six people are believed to be trapped under the rubble of an industrial facility in Kharkiv's Kyiv district, The Kharkiv prosecutor's office said in a statement on Telegram. Contact with those trapped was lost and rescue attempts have been ongoing since early afternoon, it said, without naming the facility. On Saturday afternoon, Russian aerial bombs struck Kharkiv again, killing at least one person and wounding five others, the mayor said. Today, rescue and emergency operations continued all day across various regions and cities of our country. Over 400 drones, more than 40 missiles were launched by the Russians. 80 people were injured, and some may still be under the debris. And unfortunately, not everyone in the… — Volodymyr Zelenskyy / Володимир Зеленський (@ZelenskyyUa) June 6, 2025 The morning strikes also wounded two people in the Dnipropetrovsk province further south, according to local governor Serhii Lysak. Meanwhile, Russia's defence ministry said that its forces shot down 36 Ukrainian drones overnight, over the country's south and west, including near the capital. Drone debris wounded two civilians in the suburbs of Moscow, governor Andrei Vorobyov reported. A US-led diplomatic push for a settlement has brought two rounds of direct peace talks between delegations from Russia and Ukraine, though the negotiations delivered no significant breakthroughs. But both sides remain far apart on their terms for an end to the fighting.
