@VeikoSpolitis The West imposed devastating "shock therapy", fast-track privatization, concentration of power, rise of an oligarchic class, supported oligarch-dealing Putin to prevent this "democratization" being overturned at the polls, and now we're back to electoral autocracy and containment | |

@slikts Appliance of shock therapy accross the board in all fSU States was a mistake, now chicken coming to roost. | |

@VeikoSpolitis Not that the causality between Yeltsin's liberalization and the democratic backslide would be acknowledged in mainstream Western thought outside of lip service. The operating idea is about an inherent undemocratic trait in Russians, although most don't have the spine to admit it | |
