The Russian President Vladimir Putin turns 72 today – October 7, 2024. It is the 21st time he will celebrate his birthday holding the highest office in the state. As in previous years, writes Tass, the head of state will celebrate his birthday at work. As a rule, Putin begins to receive congratulations from foreign leaders in the form of telegrams and phone calls in the morning. Several private business meetings are scheduled in the first half of the day. In the evening, Putin will meet the heads of state of the CIS, who will meet in Moscow ahead of tomorrow’s summit.
Putin never speaks publicly about his birthday – underlines the Russian agency – and tries to avoid drawing attention to the topic unnecessarily. “It’s my birthday, it’s not a national holiday. It seems immodest to me to exaggerate the importance of this event”, explained the head of state. He prefers to celebrate October 7 with friends and relatives. Despite his busy schedule, the president tries to have at least one evening for his family.
