minus-squareklu9linkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2·6 days agoThought I’d try to see how many I remembered. Is that Aleksandr Lukashenko, Pres. of Belarus? Abdullah II, King of Jordan Looks familiar… but also looks like a mugshot :D Tony Blair, PM of Britain Jacques Chirac, Pres. of France Bill Clinton, Pres. of the US Kofi Annan, Sec Gen of the UN Jiang Zemin, Pres. of PRC Vladmir Putin, Pres of Russian Federation Can’t remember but I’ll guess the Pres. of Indonesia. Fidel Castro, Pres. of Cuba Gerhard Schröder, Chancellor of the Fed. Rep. of Germany Edvard Shevardnadze, Pres. of Georgia Jean Chrétien, PM of Canada Vaclav Havel, Pres. of the Cezch Rep. Omar Bashir, Pres of Sudan? Yasser Arafat, the Palestinian Authority John Howard, PM of Australia Ehud Barak, PM of Israel I know this guy (with the mustache) but I just can’t remember. Pres of Argentina? I feel like he was PM of Ireland Another one whose face I recognize but can’t quite remember. I was thinking Mahmud Abbas, but two Palestinians in the same shot? Can’t be right. Réné Préval, Pres of Haiti. Embarrassing I only got him on a 2nd/3rd look, because I actually met him in 2001. Hugo Chávez, Pres of Venezuela
