QR – Cure – Quizzing Realms – 313

A slightly difficult one.

where

This 4,446-metre high peak in country X was named after the leader of country Y so as to promote friendly relationships between the two countries. Z, the leader of Y, has several other achievements to his credit. Z has written a book on Judo, and is said to be the only world-leader to have a special Judo move of his own. On a certain occasion, when forest fires ravaged parts of Y, Z actually got into a helicopter and piloted it while spraying water/fire-retardant material over parts of the affected area. On another occasion, Z actually put a wild tiger in a forest to sleep with a tranquiliser gun, and helped forest officials measure its teeth!

Identify X, Y and Z.

Happy quizzing, and have a nice life, folks!

15 replies, and barring Yash the Dark, all seem to have conquered the summit! This is indeed Mount Putin in Kyrghystan, named after Vladmir Putin of Russia.
