RIA-Novosti reports:
Russian Prime Minister Vladimir Putin named on Thursday a mountain peak in the Caucasus in honor of Russian spies.
The former president's office has said that the one-time KGB agent signed a resolution to name the Sugan Ridge mountain peak the Peak of Russian Counterintelligence Agents.
It's not a catchy name, but the mountain is in North Ossetia near the Georgian border, so it may be an appropriate one.
