Russian Prime Minister Dmitri Medvedev appeared to have dozed off during parts of the grand opening ceremony of the Olympic Games in Sochi on February 7. Footage captured him apparently nodding off in the official stand during the ceremony.
A photo captioned “The Olympic Games seen through the eyes of Medvedev” circulated on social media, capturing the moment of his apparent drowsiness. The images, broadcast on Russian public television and uploaded to YouTube, prompted a wave of sarcastic comments and memes across social networks.
