Letter A

Dear Ivan,
How are you doing in the United States? Well I hope. I dont understand why you wanted to
leave so bad our president Vladimir Putin is such a great man and has done much for our
country. He has his faults but his accomplishments overshadow them and are like a breath of
fresh air compared to what life was like before. Previously people didnt even have money for
food but now under him Poverty has been halved and almost all people have had their salaries at
least tripled. When Yeltsin was in charge he let oligarchs loot the Russia and the Russian people
and forced many people to have hardships. But Putin saw what they had done and didnt let go
free. He opened fraud proceedings that sent them to jail or made them have to leave the country.
He is a hero to Russia. When He was head of the FSB and he fought to stop the Chechen terror
attacks that plagued Russia. Russia needed a strong and powerful leader to guide it and no one
has more strength then him. Although he has many accolades in political affairs he also has
many other accomplishments that further prove his worth as an individual. He doesn't drink and
was a judo champion in his youth. He races cars, hunts big game, pilots fighter jets, rides barechested on horseback, and zooms around unhelmet on a Harley-Davidson. Just recently he
discovered two ancient and pristine Greek urns while he scuba diving in the in the black sea.
During the terrible forest fires of 2010, Putin personally dumped tons of water on the flames
from a water bomber. He isnt a boss that tell people what to. He is a leader that leads by
example. He is a real man that all people should admire and respect.

Letter B
Dear Luke,
I am doing well in the United States thank you for asking. You say that Vladimir Putin is a great
man but I disagree. He wishes only to further himself. He only wants to do much for the country
because he sees it has his country. His is the ruler and want a grand kingdom to dominate. His
faults are endless and he has empty accomplishments. He shouldnt even have the ability to
govern Russia. A president can only serve two terms but he exploited a loophole in the system
for a third term. He has someone sitting in the president seat that is a minion to that he controls.
Those oligarchs that he had arrested and flee the country, he didnt do it to because he thought
they were immoral he did it because he wanted their money for himself. He is estimated to be
worth over 40 billion dollars. And not all of them had consequences happen to them some were
able to stay he are close to Putin like Roman Abramovich .And the other activities that you speak
he has done are only done so that he can gain the trust of people like you. Its done so you gain
respect for him. Enough to look past he what he really does. Some of those supposed things
were fake. Like the urns he found. They were conveniently located in just seven feet of water
and were in pristine condition do you really think that was real. He is a dictator that only wants
to improve his status in the world and crushed any opposition to him. He is not a dictator like
Kim Jong Un. He is more subtle in his approaches so that no one is able to see the real him and
stop him before it is too late. He abolished local election whats to stop him when his third term
is up and he makes it so you cant vote for the president anyone and he is the only leader. Did

you know that he invaded the Ukraine? What if he wants to make his own Soviet Union? What if
he is like Stalin when that happens. I plead with you to join me. Please leave Russia and Join me
in America.
