As the "late king", why is Putin always late for meetings?
Putin is a famous "late king" in the world. When he is late, he is often late to meet foreign leaders. The shortest may be more than ten minutes, and the longest can actually reach four hours. When meeting with German Chancellor Angela Merkel, it was precisely because Putin kept Merkel waiting for nearly four hours that Merkel was very angry and immediately announced the cancellation of the meeting. Even so, Putin doesn't seem to care much, and being late should continue.
Putin himself once apologized to reporters for being late for meetings, and said that he was a person with a wide range of interests, especially like chatting with people. If he meets a passer-by on the way to any activity or meeting, he will like to chat with this person, sometimes chatting will forget the time, so he will often be late.
However, Putin's statement seems untenable, because Putin should be aware of the importance of meeting between state leaders, and it seems that Putin's later goals are treated differently. For example, for example, Putin, the leader of the United States and Germany, will be late for a long time, while for the Queen of England, it is usually more than ten minutes. From this perspective, Putin just wants to show his aura to some unfriendly countries.
