Time magazine, the most popular in the USA, annually confers the title “person of the year” to the person (or group of people, and sometimes even the collective image), which had the greatest influence on world events and most often “flashed” in the news for the year.
In 2015, the editors narrowed the short list to eight people. It included well-known politicians, activists and businessmen.
So who is he man of the year 2015 according to Time magazine?

The Russian president not only challenged Western sanctions, but also in alliance with Syrian leader Bashar Assad, is conducting a successful operation against ISIS. His actions find support not only among Russians, but also among many citizens of the European Union and the United States. It got to the point that an article appeared in the Washington Post under the heading "Stop coming to ecstasy from Putin."

7. Caitlin Jenner

Her name was William once, and she was the Olympic decathlon champion. But it is difficult to be in harmony with yourself when you feel like a woman, and are in a man’s body. Caitlin had to undergo a lengthy correction of the biological sex, after which she appeared on the cover of Vanity Fair, and became the star of the reality show "I am Kate."

6. Travis Kalanik

This candidate from the Republican Party became famous for the proposal to ban Muslims from entering the country of freedom and democracy, as well as supporting Russian military operations in Syria. Good luck on the election, Mr. Trump!

2. Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi

It may surprise someone that the title «person of the year ”, according to Time, claims the head of the Islamic State extremist group, which claimed responsibility for a number of terrible terrorist attacks, including in Paris and San Bernardino. However, the editors of the magazine do not divide the candidates into good and bad. But the US Department of State - shares, and in 2011 he announced that he would pay up to $ 10 million for information that would help capture or kill the head of ISIS.

1. Angela Merkel

Here he is, the man of the year 2015! The German Chancellor is committed to an open border policy, despite the fact that results such actions are not to the liking of many Germans, including those from her own party. This year, Merkel was also at the center of the news because of the crisis in the Eurozone, in which her country acted as an “economic ambulance”.
