OREANDA-NEWS. CNBC journalist Headley Gamble, who moderated the plenary session of the Russian Energy Week (REW) international forum, boasted of her photo with Russian President Vladimir Putin. The American TV presenter shared the photo on her Instagram.

The photo posted by the Kommersant newspaper on the front page shows the journalist's legs against the background of the Russian leader, who is sitting next to her. “My best angle,” signed the Gamble post, adding the hashtags “feminism” and “Russia” under it. A significant part of the photo is taken by the legs of an American journalist, and this was the reason for another of her posts. According to Gamble, the photographer captured her "from the best point." "A good reason to invest further in shoes?" - ironically inquired one of the journalist's colleagues - the leading European division of CNBC Karen Tso.

At the forum, Putin called Gamble a beautiful woman. “She is a beautiful woman, a pretty one. I tell her one thing, and she tells me something completely different. As if she didn’t hear what I said, and statements of this kind are an attempt to mislead people. ”- the head of Russia remarked in response to a journalist's question about how Moscow can make Europe believe that Russia is a reliable partner in gas supplies,“ when you do not supply this energy through gas pipelines ”.

The International Forum "Russian Energy Week" is held in Moscow from 13 to 15 October at the Manezh. The organizers are the Roscongress Foundation, the Russian Ministry of Energy and the Moscow government.
