A chilling Christmas greeting to the West has come from Vladimir Putin today in the form of a 2019 calendar from his burgeoning military machine.
The Russian Defence Ministry view of next year begins with a snowy January view of a hulking Topol-M intercontinental mobile missile system captioned cheerfully: âCargo delivery to anywhere in the world.â
Another icy calendar greeting comes in September with a picture showing a uniformed female sniper taking aim to shoot.
âSome women can blow your head away,â reads the caption.
The calendar was unveiled in apparent deliberate timing as the West marks Christmas Day.
For Russians 25 December is a normal working day and their main seasonal celebration comes at New Year, the moment when Grandfather Frost - as Santa is known here - brings presents to all children.
This kicks off a long Russian holiday season which includes Orthodox Russian Christmas Day on 7 January.
The March 2009 calendar shows the increasing number of women cadets joining Putinâs military ranks.
The message is: âShooting a glance is the Kremlin's secret weapon.â
In February the picture is the Tu-95 strategic bomber, nicknamed the âbearâ.
Here the message from defence minister Sergei Shoigu, a close ally and holiday buddy of Vladimir Putin, is: "Russian 'bears' don't hibernate in winter.â
April shows âRussian snowdropsâ - aka Russian special forces equipped with chemical attack masks.
More special forces are seen in June examining their weapons, with the caption: âTuning equipment before a âconcertâ.â
