The Russian president shrugs off a protest by topless women in Hanover who yelled 'dictator' before they were covered up.
Russian president Vladimir Putin said he enjoyed protets by topless women at a German trade fair.
Three members of international women's rights group Femen, which has staged protests against Russia's detention of the feminist punk band Pussy Riot, targeted his visit to a trade fair in Hanover with German Chancellor Angela Merkel.
The protesters ran towards the Russian leader shouting 'Putin dictator!' before being covered up and bundled away by security guards. He appeared pleasantly surprised.

Mr Putin, no stranger to the odd topless photo opportunity himself having been caught in candid snaps posing bare-chested in Siberia - at times whilst riding a horse - suggested the security men could have been 'gentler' in their handling of the protesters.

'I did not catch what they were shouting, I did not even see If they were blondes, brunettes or chestnut-haired.

Topless protesters stormed a fair in Hannover, Germany, where visiting Russian President Vladimir Putin met with German Chancellor Angela Merkel on a foreign relations trip.
Several activists from Ukraine's Femen group bared their torsos and chests — with messages painted in black letters on their bodies — in front of the industry fair's Volkswagen booth as Putin and Merkel toured the fair.
Women from the feminist group shouted, 'Putin dictator,' as they ran towards the visiting president. Guards tackled the protesters and detained them.
A smiling Putin shrugged off the protest.
'As for the action, I liked it,' he said. 'You should be grateful to the girls. They are helping you make the fair more popular.'

Two people have been charged over topless photos of the Duchess of Cambridge, it is being reported.
Sources told the AFP news agency the accused are the head of the Mondadori Group - the publisher of glossy magazine Closer where some of the shots were printed - and a photographer at regional daily La Provence.
The photos of Prince William's wife Catherine caused a furore when they were published last September, and sparked a criminal probe into how they were obtained.
Prince William and Kate The couple spoke of their anger about the pictures' publication
Judges in the Paris suburb of Nanterre charged the photographer with 'invasion of privacy' for taking images of the former Kate Middleton in a swimsuit while she was on holiday in the south of France with her husband.
Those shots were published in La Provence, but the most intimate pictures showing the Duchess of Cambridge topless and having sun cream applied by William were published in Closer.
Judges are still investigating who took those photos.
Ernesto Mauri, the chief executive of Mondadori, was also charged with 'invasion of privacy' for allowing the topless shots to be published.
French authorities promptly banned Closer from any further publication or resale of the topless images after they first emerged.

Putin confronted by topless protesters in Hannover, Germany, on April 8, 2013.
We’ve grown pretty accustomed to photos of Russian President Vladimir Putin topless, whether he’s nonchalantly riding a horse or casually walking beside a mountain stream. But this time, the shirt is on the other torso. While visiting Hannover, Germany, to meet with European leaders, Putin was blitzed by three topless members of the women’s rights group Femen, who shouted slogans at the Russian leader and called him a “dictator” before being escorted away. Still, the incident was just long enough to produce an unscripted and amazingly goofy reaction from the usually dour Putin, whose face expressed pretty much the same emotion as any human when presented with a lunging half-naked woman. As caught in Gawker’s hilarious and probably not-safe-for-work GIF, the Russian leader immediately gave two thumbs up as he ogled the nude kamikaze protester. (He may not have been as big a fan if he could read the “obscene slogan” written in Cyrillic on her back, as the Telegraph termed it.)
Femen took credit for the protest on their Facebook page, according to the Telegraph, calling it an “antidictatorial attack on Putin.” The group has previously targeted Putin over the arrest and conviction of members of the feminist punk collective Pussy Riot — two of whom are still doing time in Russian labor camps — after they performed an anti-Putin song in a Moscow cathedral.
