Gurbanguly Berdymukhammedov – President of Turkmenistan
If I feared for my well-being over potential misunderstandings of my Moroccan monarch portrait, pity the head of state who holds the title President for Life. As noted previously, like underwear, leaders should be changed often. This sentiment ought to strike terror in the heart of any leader whose presidency is terminal.
Little wonder former dentist Gurbanguly Berdymukhammedov prefers the title “acting president” after his predecessor, President for Life Saparmurat Niyazov succeeded in dying in office. He is shown here in a toasty looking hat as well as his underpants.
Previous heads of state can be found here, with and without hats.
