🇩🇪🇷🇺 A German citizen who disagreed with his country's policies was issued a temporary residence permit in Bryansk, Russia.
This became possible within the framework of the presidential decree on support for foreigners who share traditional Russian values.

• Повеса (повесы)
[pa-ve-sa (pa-ve-sy)]
Meaning:
1. A man who leads a life of leisure, often neglecting responsibilities and prioritizing pleasure above all else, like idle, reckless, self-indulgent.
2. А penchant for women, often suggesting a history of multiple relationships and a lack of commitment, like womanizer, Don Juan.
🔻An 1847 dictionary defines related words like:
• Весь [ves']: village, settlement (probably повеса comes from по весям (to walk) around the villages, drinking alcohol and having fun).
Повеса is also described in old dictionaries as a шалун [sha-lun] a rascal, mischievous person, or ветреник [ve-tri-nik] а fickle person.
🔻Therefore, повеса paints a picture of a lively, perhaps charming, but ultimately irresponsible individual who prioritizes pleasure and romantic pursuits above more serious obligations.
Modern synonym (⚠️a bit rude):
• Бабник (бабники)
[bab-nik (bab-ni-ki)]
A womanizer(s)
