With the invasion breaking out, a western reporter is sent to Moscow to find out what the average Russian on the street thinks of Putin. He approaches a few people, and gets the standard reply - "strong leader, great for the country, Russia stands proud" and so on. Then he asks one old man, who looks shiftily from side to side, and says "Not here. Come with me".
The old man dashes with surprising speed down an alley, then up a fire escape and into a block of flats. The reporter follows him through a door into a caretaker's storeroom, and from there into the lift shaft via an access panel. They climb up and emerge on the roof. Even then the old man leads the reporter to a secluded corner, out of sight of any taller buildings overlooking it.
"Right, westerner? You want to know what I really think of Putin?"
"Yes, by all means!"
"You bugged? Wearing a wire? Take your coat and shirt off."
The reporter does. "And now your pants and trousers." Again the reporter does, so he's stark bollock naked and the old man checks him for any bugs. Finally satisfied that no remote surveillance is taking place, he says "Yeah, I suppose he's alright".
