If the thought of President Dmitry Medvedev rocking out to 90s pop hits sets your pulse racing, then look away now, because the actual video is beyond your imagination’s very wildest, and may push you over the edge. The video, slyly captured at a student university reunion (‘The guy who posted this video on youtube will soon drink some radioactive tea,‘ suggested one YouTube user), has gone viral, with 3,000 hits last night, 16,000 this morning, and the figure since having doubled to 35,000. Medvedev made reference to it on his Twitter account yesterday after one member tweeted that the video lifted her spirits. The soundtrack is ‘American Boy’ by Russian group Kombinaciya.
