Some children ask Santa for a pony. Others ask that Arnold Schwarzenegger — the former governor of California better known for his bulging biceps in "The Terminator" — change the course of Russia-U.S. relations.

The world's strongest teenage girl, 15-year-old Russian powerlifter Maryana Naumova, told Schwarzenegger she hoped he would become the president of the United States and kick relations with Russia into shape, according to Argumenty i Fakty newspaper.

Naumova met Schwarzenegger at the annual Arnold Sports Festival held last week in Columbus, Ohio. The Russian schoolgirl set a new world record by bench pressing 150 kilograms and was congratulated by The Terminator in person.
Schwarzenegger reportedly said he would "work on" fulfilling Naumova's request.
