| Description | Action-movie actor Steven Seagal has an answer to the Kremlin's political problems in the Primorye region: himself.
Seagal, who has personal ties with President Vladimir Putin and was given Russian citizenship in 2016, told an audience in Vladivostok that he "would like" to be Primorye's governor, the Interfax news agency reported on September 26.
His remarks came amid controversy over the gubernatorial election in Primorye, where the results of a September 16 runoff were thrown out after the Communist Party cried foul when the Kremlin favorite overtook its candidate in the final stages of the vote count. |
