🔺Kremlin official’s wife has a smashing holiday despite sanctions
“Smashing plates is part of the nightlife rampage in Greece,” wrote Tatiana Navka, the wife of President Putin’s spokesman in a post on Instagram as she broke one plate after another while dancing in a restaurant to a tune from Zorba the Greek.
All good fun, perhaps, apart from the fact that Navka, a former Olympic ice dancing champion, and her husband, Dmitry Peskov, are subject to European Union sanctions. The suggestion that the wife of one of Putin’s closest allies was partying in Greece in defiance of sanctions aimed at punishing the Russian elite for the invasion of Ukraine sparked outrage.
Greece denied that Navka, 47, had entered the country but there was speculation that she could have visited a Greek island from Turkey, where she said she was on vacation. “I love to find out new things when I’m on vacation,” she wrote on Telegram last night.
