I know it’s not much of a cite, but someone on the [YouTube page](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Mgu9GxRg1V8) says he translated the boy to be saying “I’m hungry” to Putin.

If that’s true, it would certainly shed some light on why he kissed his stomach…

I heard he said he had a stomachache.

Well there you go. Either way, at least there’s _some_ reason for kissing the boy’s stomach. Jeez people, lay off the pedophilia stuff.

The clip in the OP requires you to sign up with CNN. Here’s a [Google Video version.](http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=4739369934885253744&q=putin)

_That_’s what the fuss is about? That was about as sexual and perverted as rumpling the kid’s hair affectionately.
