The Kremlin published joint photographs of Russian President Vladimir Putin and former German Federal Chancellor Gerhard Schröder from the celebrations of Putin's birthday yesterday, on its official account in the state messenger Max.

In the photos, Putin and Schröder are pictured together during the celebration. Putin turned 76 on October 7.
The Kremlin reported that on the morning of October 7, Vladimir Putin allegedly only learned from media reports about the arrival of former German Chancellor Gerhard Schröder in Moscow on company "Globus" business. After that, the Russian president supposedly invited his longtime friend to his home.
Schröder maintained his friendship with Putin and business ties with Russia even after the attack on Ukraine, for which he faces strong criticism in Germany, including within the ranks of his own party — the Social Democratic Party of Germany.
