President Vladimir Putin is using a newly designed Russian limousine abroad for the first time to get to the summit with President Donald Trump in Finland.
Putin first used the Kortezh limousine during his inauguration in May but had never taken it abroad until now. Putin landed in Helsinki behind schedule for the summit.
The use of the Kortezh could be a show of Russian pride to counter the U.S. president's world famous limousine known as "The Beast." Putin's motorcade included several other vehicles of the same Kortezh, or Aurus family.
