The incident happened this morning at a trade fair in Hannover, Germany when the leaders were confronted by an activist from Ukrainian feminist group Femen, known for drawing attention to its causes via much-photographed topless protests.
The protester also had an anti-Putin slogan daubed in Cyrillic script on her back, according to reports.
Three protestors accosted Mr Putin's party by the Volkswagen exhibit, according to HAZ, denouncing the Russian president as a 'dictator'.
They were however stopped by security staff before reaching Mr Putin.
A spokesperson for the Russian parliament has described the incident as 'hooliganism'.
The Russian leader is a frequent target o f Femen protests, including those angered by the jailing of members of punk band Pussy Riot last year for singing anti-Putin songs.
