Bosnian Serb leader Milorad Dodik doused the order he received from Russian dictator Vladimir Putin in vodka, according to a video he published on X on Feb. 21.

Dodik can be seen pouring alcohol into a glass containing the award, crossing himself, drinking, and then passing the glass around.

“In Kazan, we traditionally celebrated in the Russian way the awarding of the Order of Alexander Nevsky, which was presented to me today by Russian President Vladimir Putin,” he wrote.

Dodik met with Putin in Kazan on Feb. 21. At the end of the talks, the Russian dictator presented the leader of the Bosnian Serbs with the Order of Alexander Nevsky for “strengthening the partnership” between Russia and Republika Srpska, Politico reported.

Dodik awarded Putin a state order in absentia in January 2023, which the EU called an “unfortunate mistake.” In the summer of the same year, despite the EU’s warnings, he visited the dictator in Moscow.
