MH17 Fallout: Vladimir Putin's Daughter Forced To Leave Home In Netherlands -- Sydney Morning Herald

The 34-year-old's departure comes after her address was leaked by Ukrainian activists online, leading to calls for her deportation.

My Comment: Most of these kids are not into politics .... but it is true that almost all of them do use their parents connections for jobs, money, privilege, etc.. As to where do they live .... Maria Putina's choice of the Netherlands is a surprise .... most of these kids prefer Switzerland, London, Miami is very hot right now, and Monaco. The French Riviera and the Bordeaux region is also popular.

WNU: Here's something interesting about this article in the Mirror and the Russian Embassy.
