During a hunting trip in 2013, Russian president Vladimir Putin and former Italian prime minister Silvio Berlusconi had a rather unusual experience. Fabrizio Cicchitto, a member of Berlusconi's party, recently shared some gruesome details of their trip with the Italian newspaper Corriere della Sera.
It all began when Berlusconi was vacationing in Russia, at one of Putin's favorite dachas. Being an avid outdoorsman, Putin decided to take his friend on a hunt. Despite being a billionaire media mogul, Berlusconi had never been hunting before.
However, things took a dark turn when the two men came across two deer in the woods. Putin, with his keen eye, spotted the animals and told Berlusconi to take the shot. But Berlusconi, not wanting to harm the innocent creatures, refused. Without hesitation, Putin raised his rifle and killed both deer with one shot.
As if that wasn't enough, Putin then proceeded to quarter one of the deer with his knife. He even pulled out the animal's heart and gave it to one of his security team members to present to Berlusconi, claiming it would make for a delicious meal.
But the sight of the heart was too much for Berlusconi to handle. He quickly ran behind a nearby tree and vomited. Later, when recounting the adventure back in Italy, Berlusconi tried to brush it off as a "hunter's custom."
Despite this shocking incident, Berlusconi remained close friends with Putin until his death in 2020. He even supported Putin's actions in annexing Crimea and invading Ukraine, even sending him Italian wine on his 86th birthday while the war was still ongoing.
It's clear that Putin's violent nature and love for the outdoors were on full display during this hunting trip, leaving Berlusconi with a lasting memory and a strong friendship with the Russian president.
