A battle between young female fans of President Dmitry Medvedev and Prime Minister Vladimir Putin went to school Thursday.
Celebrating the first day of the school year, young women in tight white blouses, short plaid miniskirts and stiletto heels strutted around Pushkin Square and tested bystanders on their knowledge of Medvedev's life and policies.
The attractive young women from the informal Medvedev Girls group, dressed in risque versions of school outfits, focused on young men, asking them questions that ranged from Medvedev's anti-beer legislation to where he met his wife.
While the stated goal of the event was to raise awareness about Medvedev, the women also handed out strawberries to those who answered correctly, adding to the event's erotic slant. "Strawberry" is an informal blanket term in Russian for anything related to sex.
