> Vladimir Putin has broken the law in Turkmenistan by driving to a summit in a black limousine instead of a regulation white or silver car.
***
Assuming he was even made aware of this rule, Dictators love rephrasing petty nonsense as being a “power move” so Putin probably felt great about this.
Banning a color of car is definitely a culture worth preserving.
How crazy would it be if Israel just launched a barrage on them and had to make it where putin could only be smuggled back to russia lmao.
Maybe Israel can do us all a real favor and take out the threat.
“Mr Berdymukhamedov Snr [the late president of Turkmenistan] banned black cars in 2018 because he considered them unlucky and spoiled his vision of the pristine capital, which is built out of white marble on the edge of the desert.“
> After his bullet-proof Aurus Senat limousine pulled up outside Turkmenistan's palatial Chamber of Commerce, Putin walked up a steep flight of steps to met Serdar Berdymukhamedov, the Turkmen president whose father banned black cars because he thought they were unlucky.
> "Relations with Iran are a priority for us, they are developing very successfully," Putin said.
Maybe Iran can get the trillions they need for infrastructure from Putin?
Oops – the Russians dont have any money anymore nor do they make anything outside of weapons that has any commercial value, and even those aren’t that good.
But how are they transporting his feces back to the motherland?
That is the least of our worries, but good to know Putin is still full of hubris.
“Smithers, this calls for the League of Evil!”
“Actually it’s midnight blue”
Thought for a minute he was in Tehran ready to eat a JDAM
What kind of stupid journalism is it? Why dont they report the color of his underwear as well?
I hate this guy as much as the rest of you, but diplomats and foreign leaders are not beholden to regulations of nation states world-wide.
Israel now has the opportunity to do the rest of the world a real solid…
Ok its time to start the bombing the special guest has arrived.
Damn. Maybe this will be the thing that rally nails him. God forbid a war criminal breaks a vehicular law. I’m sure they will throw him in jail for such a heinous crime. I guess the Holocaust could have been avoided too. All they needed to do was arrest Hitler for jaywalking and everything would have been different.
Illegal limo?
I would like to see the ticket they write up for this! 🧐🥴🤷🏻♂️😆
Israel, I’m not saying to attack Iran right now, but doing so you’d kill to fucking terrorist birds with one stone.
It’s so obvious how these two countries are collaborating to screw the world up, yet everyone in the west can’t get out of their revisionist narrative and see the bigger picture… Putin and the Ayatollah are butt buddies
I can’t imagine policing the color of a car.
The epitome of childish toxic masculinity is found in Iran. Everyone I know from there says they escaped
“Illegal Black Limo” sounds like a funk house band
Wheres Turkmenbashi when you need him. Chaos in the streets!
What a chance…
Who gives a shit. Everyone knows the US president travels overseas with “The Beast.” Obviously paranoid pussy Putin will be doing something similar.
Capitol offence no doubt 🤣🤣🤣
Dumb headline. The meeting was important. The color of the car, and the law banning black cars, are pointless clickbait.
Would be a pretty sweet time for Israel to go after Iran right now…
“Former Soviet Turkmenistan lies on the southern edge of Central Asia next to Iran. It is one of the most repressive countries in the world, with a dictatorship that has no free media or open political process.
In its 2024 report on Turkmenistan, the New York-based Human Rights Watch said all basic rights were repressed and torture in prison was rife.”
I think I know who the UN will name as the next chair of the human rights council
What is illegal about the limo? does it have rainbow colored tags and super tinted windows? Does it smell like marijuana? Or is the driver dwb?
lol the title is a bit regarded to me
It’s a show of authority. He knows what he’s doing.

We can only hope they’re unlucky.
So the Limo is the issue.
This is the best tl;dr I could make, [original](https://www.telegraph.co.uk/world-news/2024/10/11/vladimir-putin-arrives-iran-summit/) reduced by 87%. (I’m a bot)
