Показать описание
Russian President Vladimir Putin has driven a Mercedes over the bridge that links Moscow-annexed Crimea to the Russian mainland weeks after the vital link was partially blown up.
In what is the closest the 70-year-old leader has come to the frontline in Ukraine, Mr Putin drove across the Kerch bridge as Russia re-opened it to traffic following an October blast Moscow blamed on Ukraine.
While driving, he discussed the repairs of the bridge with Marat Khusnulin, a deputy prime minister in charge of the project, in an exchange that was broadcast by Russian television.
