Whenever we see him being interviewed in the West, we see a hard nosed unfriendly looking man but when you watch his interviews, his face softens and so does his voice.

his "interviews"... you mean the ones he has complete control over? the ones that he has pre approved the questions and has propagandists writing his answers that he memorizes before hand? you mean those "interviews"?

Putin doesn't do any interviews, they are all scripted and he has complete control.

It's not like the US president who takes completely un scripted questions from the press on a regular basis from the White House press corps.

the president doesn't take unscripted questions from a variety of press both domestic and international?

no it's not. you are accusing a lot of people of conspiracy if you believe that, including the BBC and the Guardian, the New York Times, even FOX news... they have all had reporters able to ask unscripted questions directly to the president. even Fox news, do you think FOX news is conspiring with Obama? lol that's just ridiculous.

Yes, the ones he has complete control over just like our PM. Before PM question time, Cameron is given a run down on the subject matter he's going to be questioned about so that he can prepare his answers.
