Steven Seagal

Russian President Vladimir Putin has signed a decree to honor the American actor Steven Seagal with the state Order of Friendship.

He has also worked as the Russian Foreign Ministry’s “special representative” to the United States and Japan. He visited the occupied Donbas area last summer. In an interview on Russian television last year he spoke of an existential threat to Russia from Ukraine.

Russian President Vladimir Putin is reportedly honoring Steven Seagal with an award for the “Under Siege” actor's support of the country.
