Russian President Vladimir Putin¿s umbrella stole the show at the presentation ceremony of FIFA World cup 2018 amid a post-match downpour in Moscow. During the ceremony, it commenced pouring and Putin was the only one to be offered an umbrella, while other world leaders like French President Emmanuel Macron and Croatian leader Kolinda Grabar-Kitarovic along with Fifa boss Gianni Infantino got drenched.

Apparently, all of them were unfazed by the lack of any specific effort to shield them from the rain. However, later someone managed to rustle up a few umbrellas (smaller ones) for the visiting guests, as per several media reports. Soon after the picture of Putin surfaced on social media, Tweeple could not maintain their calm, and have responded to it.
