Vladimir Putin is the incumbent President of Russia, serving in the country's leadership since 1999, known for his adversarial relationship with the United States and authoritarianism. He first appears in the Season Nine episode "Free Willzyx".

Background

In "Free Willzyx", he and his advisors are concerned that their country may be running out of cash when they receive a phone call from Kyle asking if Russia can send his whale to the moon. Putin is enthusiastic and asks for $20,000,000 in return, but the boys decline due to their lack of funds. When they mention they have a whale, Putin becomes convinced it is a prank call and blames George W. Bush for it.

He appears as one of the world leaders in "Pinewood Derby", agreeing to nuke Finland after its leader Matti Vanhanen plans to inform the Intergalactic Police about the "space cash" stolen on board Baby Fark McGee-zax's ship.

He later appears in "Members Only", where he is seen speaking to an adviser about TrollTrace.com. Concerned that his girlfriend will see all of his internet history, he declares that the service must be stopped. He receives a phone call from the White House expecting the President but instead speaks to several Memberberries reminiscing about the cold war.

He makes yet another appearance in "Franchise Prequel", where Stephen Stotch grounds both him and Butters for using Facebook advertising to make money and create chaos around the world, with Stephen lecturing that just because it is possible to do so without breaking rules does not make him or Butters innocent by extension for only lighting the fuse. It is unknown whether Putin is still grounded.

In "Back To The Cold War", his advisors express concern that he is feeling "nostalgic" and find him in his office, dancing shirtless to "Two Tribes" by Frankie Goes to Hollywood. He is then interrupted to watch Butters Stotch compete for Dressage, which he eventually won. Mr. Mackey then delivers a speech about how one may feel nostalgia of the past and their dicks may not work anymore as they age and cause them to become aggressive. Putin nods in sympathy, seeming to understand.

Appearance

Putin dresses formally, wearing a black suit and a red tie with yellow dots. He has auburn-red hair and wrinkles on his forehead, due to age.

In "Back To The Cold War", his design is revised, with his hair graying and thinning due to age, and a slightly different nose and a stronger chin. He is only seen shirtless in this appearance.
