During the October 13 meeting on the development of agriculture, Tkachov proposed increasing pork production for exports to China and Indonesia. Putin responded, “Indonesia is a Muslim country. They do not eat pork there.”
Tkachov defended his proposal saying, “It does not matter. They will eat it.”
Through his laughter, Putin responded, “They won’t.”
In the Muslim religion, eating pork is prohibited.

Putin: Indonesians don't eat pork, but they could buy our cows. Minister: No, we plan to sell our cows to the Indians.
-
As an Indonesian myself, I appreciate him being able to understand the culture of my country ❤
-
“What the difference?” is the quote from Russian movie “Brother 2”. Usually Russians say that when make mistake about nationality of someone. This is self-irony.
-
Putin doesnt laugh about him mentioning Indonesia, he laughs when the minister asks whats the difference
-
He laughed not at Indonesia. Tkachev corrected himself and said "South Korea" and then added "what's the difference?" implying all asian countries are the same. They all found it very amusing
-
Has anyone noticed how useful auto-translated subtitles can be?
-
This just shows that no matter of bs of the topic, Putin is listening you anyways lol
-
Putin: laughs Everyone: sigh of relief
-

The minister ritorically ask "Whats the difference? ", it was a joke in criminal blockbuster russian movie "Brother 2", where some kind of question was asked) .. "One word - he is a Romanian" "Actually he is a Bolgarian". "Oh, really? And whats the difference?" It was very funny in Russian cultural context.

Seeing putin laugh just hits different 😂
-
So this official suggests trying to export pork to a muslim country, and when the flaw in that brilliant plan is pointed out to him, he makes a self-deprecating joke about his own geography skills, and Putin laughs at the silliness in a sort of "I'm surrounded by idiots" way, and now half the comment section wants to interpret it as being somehow racist? Yeah, that sounds like your typical day on the internet.

Russia has been a friend of Indonesia since the Soviet Union🇮🇩❤️🇷🇺
-
He literally just laughed at the fact that the other guy asked "whats the difference?" When Putin told him to clarify its "South Korea" and not just Korea lol
-
At the end, he must have thought, "Oh, gosh, surrounded by idiots," as he was holding his hands towards his face
-
5 years was enough for us to learn Russian language.
-
I still remember this news when I had just landed in Spain, which was shared by the taxi driver intentionally because he knew I was from Indonesia, and we both laughed. :)
