50 thousand customers, a very secure vehicle… Vladimir Putin is the most protected man in the world

In a long Red Line broadcast broadcast on Monday, March 11 at 8:50 p.m., BFMTV paid attention to the important security system surrounding the Kremlin Head.

Russian President Vladimir Putin, who is close to winning the presidential elections scheduled for March 17 and re-running for a six-year term, pays special attention to his security. A security service made up of 50,000 highly trained agents, machines, a train that allows secret travel, or even a vehicle worthy of James Bond… A security system researched by BFMTV, in the format of a long and unprecedented red line, broadcast on Monday 11 March at 8:50 pm

In this documentary, we see the head of the Kremlin meeting North Korean dictator Kim Jong Un on September 13, 2023, and presenting him with this famous car called the Urus.

“We have just started producing it in Russia,” explains Vladimir Putin, who brought Kim Jong Un on board.

“Fort on wheels for the president”

And in the presidential version of this car, everything is designed to ensure maximum safety for the Russian president.

“The Urus is not only used to protect the president, but it is also a mobile command center equipped with communications equipment,” explains Mark Galeotti, a historian and specialist in security issues in Russia, speaking to BFMTV.

He adds: “It can switch to a completely sealed mode so that no gas enters the passenger cabin. It is of course fully armored to withstand close-range weapons fire.”

“The idea is for this car to be a fortress on wheels for the president,” the specialist says.
