Steven Seagal asked to train Serbian special forces in Aikido - lawman
Steven Seagal may be about to go above the law after Serbian officials offered him a job training their special police forces.
The Hollywood actor was in Serbia on a three-day visit and met with many of the state’s top officials, including Prime Minister Aleksandar Vucic and President Tomislav Nikolic.

"When you have such a famous star coming to Serbia, who loves our country and our people, our desire is to have him back again," Mali said.
Seagal has yet to make an executive decision on the job offer. It's not only Serbia's leaders that Seagal has met. The actor is on friendly terms with President Putin and is frequently in Russia.
