Is Putin related to Tsar Nicholas II?

No, Comrade Vladimir Vladimirovich is of solidly proletarian stock.

No, Putin is more related to Stalin, Lenin, Hitler, Pol pot, Mao Ze dong and the like.

No. They come from different families.

Perhaps. A DNA test should be made public to determine their kinship, if any exists.

If he is he'd have gone to extreme measures to bury it. Putin forged his career with the KGB during the Soviet era when no one of royal lineage would have been considered for such a position involving national security. It would have been important to his profession to appear to be of the proletariat. But, good spies can quash all kinds of facts, so it's always possible. Just highly unlikely.

No, Putin is related to a small family of professional wrestlers who are based in Bognor Regis.

No. There was some speculation in Pravda a few years ago, but nothing came of it. No more or less likely than another theory that he is related to Rasputin. Putin is said to be in favor of reinstating a constitutional monarchy, so you never know.

I doubt it. Nicky's ancestry was mainly German.

His father had married a "Danish" princess with nearly 100 percent German ancestry, and the three tsarinas before her had been German princesses too.

No sir, not at all

Nope different lineage
