But you are right, it's unusual behavior. It's part of the mentality, maybe... That's because any senseless demonstration of emotions could be recognized as a sign of not so smart person. This is the reason why typical official photo usually doesn't display any emotions.
Western politicians often smile because they want to show the voting public "hey I'm a nice guy, you can trust me". But often it only just makes them look even more untrustworthy, like second-hand car salesmen.

I always thought that climate there is considered warm compared to the climate in Siberia.

It depends on location. From -6 ... +10 at southern part to -20 ... -30 at northern part. But the temperature isn't a point, humidity is more important in this case. In Siberia, the air is usually drier, so low temperatures are more easily tolerated.

Nope. It will be so politically incorrect to classify that picture so, just because it looks so gayish. Off course, in Russia the possession of that photograph might be a punishable offence under the new anti-gay rules.

Not that I heard of. There is that law prohibiting gay propaganda to children (and gay parades fall under that category, as there can be children present, observing the circus), the one that drew so much wrath in Europe.

When I saw that pic, I felt that I got scarred for life. Note, that no one includes it in their quotes

Obamgutan. Please, don't insult apes, or the Librarian is going to rip your limbs off, one by one.

You won't hear me complaining or making jokes about Nelson Mandela, Martin Luther King or Rosa Parks. So no, definitely not racist. Nevertheless, we might want to come back to the topic.

The Crimean issue has been settled. Crimea has been merged with Russia, and Ukraine has evacuated its military personal (at least those who haven't defected) and other government staff. Is there anything more to discuss about Crimea?

Water supplies, maybe? Ukraine stopped water supplies to Crimea, despite what they have no debts.
