A hunky Vladimir Putin poses alongside China’s Xi Jinping in the latest edition of Russia’s FSB security service annual calendar.

The FSB calendars have become something of a staple over the years, often producing artwork that triggers wry laughs and mockery in equal measure.

The 2025 edition is, just as it was in 2023 and 2024, largely focused on Russia’s invasion of Ukraine.

But this time around, a drawing of Putin and Xi adorns the front cover. Both wear tight black shirts which show off bulging biceps and pecs as they pose in Moscow’s Red Square.

The Russian president’s T-shirt is emblazoned with a Z, a pro-war symbol in Russia. He also wears an oversized sports watch and looks around 20 years younger.

Xi poses just behind him, looking slightly more relaxed in a black polo shirt with a gold dragon on its chest and the Chinese flag on one shoulder.
