Teodoro Obiang
Teodoro Obiang is the President of Equatorial Guinea, having held power since 1979, making him one of the longest-serving leaders in the world. His regime has been characterized by accusations of human rights abuses, corruption, and mismanagement of the country's oil wealth, which has led to widespread poverty among the population despite the nation's significant natural resources. Obiang was recently in the news as he attended a celebration in Moscow alongside other leaders during Russia's Victory Day commemorations, signaling his alignment with Russia amid global geopolitical tensions.
