The head of state always has a huge responsibility, and therefore it is not surprising that these people are guarded and cherished like the apple of his eye. The security services of some prominent personalities of world politics are even capable of plunging into the surprise of an ordinary person.

1. Kim Jong-un (North Korea)

He is very afraid of attempts on his life.

The incumbent leader of North Korea is clearly very worried about his security. It will be difficult to surprise the head of state with a cortege with an armored car. Moreover, very often their cars are accompanied by motorcyclists. Often, the cars of the heads of state drive in splendid isolation, because they are already well armored and equipped. But not in the case of Kim.

Famous running bodyguards.

Apparently, Kim Jong-un prefers the "running" guards on foot. From the outside it looks strange and funny. In total, Kim Jong-un's security service consists of about 15 thousand people.

2. Recep Tayyip Erdogan (Turkey)

Knows a lot about personal safety.

The Turkish President also knows a lot about personal safety. He is always accompanied by a huge cortege of several dozen guards. The streets are patrolled by "people in civilian clothes", and there are snipers on the roofs. By the way, Erdogan drives not only an executive class limousine, but also a special armored bus.

3. Shinzo Abe (Japan)

Well guarded, better than the emperor of the country.

The youngest prime minister of Japan in the history of the country is de facto the head of state. The premier is guarded much better than the old emperor of Japan, who, however, performs an exclusively ceremonial function. While the prime minister is moving around the city, the roads are not blocked, however, the guards from the motorcade literally hang out from the windows with their bodies to ask other motorists to let them through.

Those same waving guards.

4. Elizabeth II (Great Britain)

She has one of the most serious security services.

Queen Elizabeth II remains one of the most powerful women in the world and one of the most influential politicians, despite the fact that the constitution does not directly govern Great Britain. There is nothing surprising in the fact that colossal resources are spent on its protection. On the territory of the palace, she and the whole family are guarded by the guard. There is also a personal guard at the disposal of Elizabeth.

She has a personal guard at her disposal.

5. Alpha Conde (Guinea)

An open leader, but in moderation.

Despite several attempts on his life, the President of Guinea remains a rather open person. He does not hide inside an armored car and very often waves to the people, leaning out through the car's hatch in the roof. However, the impression of "openness" is somewhat spoiled by a dozen motorcyclists, a huge number of police, bodyguards, a sniper on the roofs, as well as three military trucks following the leader's car.

Even soldiers accompany the President.

6. Donald Trump (USA)

They spend a lot of money on protecting Trump and attract the best specialists.

Even before Donald Trump became President of the United States, the billionaire paid tremendous attention to his security. There are rumors that Trump's security service has recruited (and continues to recruit) people who have served in the country's elite special forces or secret services. Real combat experience is also a plus. During the inauguration, the protection of Trump and his family cost the New York authorities more than $ 1 million per day. It is known that the American president's limousine even has donated blood.

One of the most expensive security services.

7. Vladimir Putin (Russia)

One of the most secret security services.

The most powerful, secretive and very powerful security service, the Federal Security Service, is responsible for protecting the President of the Russian Federation. All data on the FSO is strictly classified. According to unconfirmed reports, the FSO is engaged not only in the safety of top officials of the state, but also performs other "work". According to unconfirmed reports, the number of the division can reach 50 thousand employees.

The most reliable technique.

8. Xi Jingping (China)

Lots of great solutions.

The Central Security Bureau of the Communist Party of China is the body that monitors the safety of the life of not only the chairman of the party, but also all other important persons of the Celestial Empire. The total number of employees and fighters is more than 8 thousand people. It is very difficult to get into the service at the PPBKPK, because here (like others) one needs not only physical training and professionalism, but also unquestioning political reliability.

SI has a special vehicle at its disposal.

9. Alassane Auttara (Cote d'Ivoire)

He cares about his life more than others.

The President of the Republic of Côte d'Ivoire is one of the most heavily guarded heads of state. It is guarded by a truly huge number of bodyguards and military. There are even bodyguards who cover armored vehicles with their bodies, standing on the steps by the doors.

The president is also guarded by personal soldiers.
