Russian leader (5)

Ross

I think it could be either:

putin

lenin

'russian leader' is the definition.
(Vladimir Putin)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for putin that I've seen before include "powerful leader" , "Introduce" , "Russian leader" , "Russian president" .)

I've seen this clue in the Penny Press and the Sydney Morning Herald.
