Conservative pastor Franklin Graham is facing criticism on social media after he called on his followers to "Pray for President Putin" as the world waits to see whether or not the Russian head of state launches an invasion of Ukraine.
"Pray for President Putin today. This may sound like a strange request, but we need to pray that God would work in his heart so that war could be avoided at all cost," Mr Graham tweeted. "May God give wisdom to the leaders involved in these talks & negotiations, as well as those advising them."
