While I don't know about Putin's ancestry, Stalin wasn't Russian, he was Georgian (originally named Djugashvili or something like that).

By ancestry, 1/4 Danish, 1/4 English, 1/2 German. Johann Christian Friedrich Granzow (my great-grandfather) was born in Mecklenberg-Strelitz in 1820. My father changed the spelling of the name, for reasons unknown, before I was born.
