MOSCOW, August 14 (RIA Novosti) - Russian Deputy Prime Minister Dmitry Rogozin indirectly confirmed Thursday that US movie star Steven Seagal will visit the Oboronexpo military exhibition and forum taking place in the Moscow Region.
“Some good guys will gather in Zhukovsky [the exhibition venue] on Oboronexpo today,” Rogozin wrote on his Twitter page, attaching the photos of himself and Seagal.
Earlier, sources close to the situation informed RIA Novosti about the possibility of Seagal visiting the defense expo.
The international arms exhibition Oboronexpo 2014 is taking place in the city of Zhukovsky near Moscow from August 13 to 17. Apart from Russia, visiting delegations include Algeria, Armenia, Belarus, Germany, India, China, the United States, France, the Czech Republic and Switzerland.
In January Seagal expressed his readiness to discuss an advertising contract with Russia’s Kalashnikov Concern. On August 10, Seagal performed with his blues band at a concert in Sevastopol, Crimea. After the show, he was handed a T-shirt with the portrait of Russian President Vladimir Putin and thanked the audience in Russian. Seagal made his name in Hollywood in the ‘90s, starring in action movies like “Hard to Kill” and “Under Siege.”
