A Russian ambassador has vowed to close down a pub in Kyrgyzstan named after leader Vladimir Putin.

Andrei Krutko described the Putin Pub, which opened in Kyrgyzstan’s capital Bishkek two weeks ago, as "a dubious drinking site" and labelled it "unethical" in remarks to Radio Free Europe.

"When I saw the banners I talked to the mayor and he ordered them to take all of them down because they were illegal," he said.

The pub is decorated with images of the Russian president, including posters depicting Mr Putin offering punters 'Free Beer' and advertising other drink deals. Mr Krutko claimed: "I think we will close down this bar or at least change its name."
