Steven Seagal Says His 'Brother' Vladimir Putin's Actions In Crimea Are 'Very Reasonable'

Steven Seagal, martial arts maestro and the "world's lamest guy ever"," has defended his "brother" President Vladimir Putin's actions in Crimea. The actor's role seems to have shifted from leather-jacket-wearing maverick, to Putin's political best buddy apparently because of a shared love of martial arts.
Seagal expressed his support for Russia's actions in Crimea in a 2,000 word interview with state-run newspaper Rossiskaya Gazeta.
He argued Putin's "desire to protect the Russian-speaking people of Crimea, his assets, and the Russian Black Sea military base in Sevastopol is very reasonable."
He added he thinks Putin is "one of the great living world leaders" and that he "would like to consider him as a brother." He also criticised what he describes as the "idiotic" US policy on Ukraine.
