If Putin shapes the face of the world today, then what shaped Putin himself? Most people believe that the Russian president has views, ideas, and even more – an ideology.
The authors of this book are from a minority. They are sure that Putin has no views and ideas.
For the 25 years he has ruled Russia, they have been exploring the unknown pages of his past and present to come to a frightening discovery: Putin changed the world, obeying not ideas, but only his own hypocrisy. For 25 years, he has selflessly lied about everything: about his friends, parents, wives, children - he has lied about himself, his past and present.
In fact, Putin is empty. Although cunning. Much of what you will read in the book, you never knew, or have long forgotten, or underestimated the importance of the known.
This book is also about Russia, as it has become in the last 25 years. About Russia, where it is now impossible to publish honest history books, even school textbooks are full of deception and fabrications.
If you want to know and remember history as it really was, open the book and come to the conversation!
"... Hiding old sins - the crimes of the "office", the stolen assets of "Gazprom", lawlessness in Chechnya and so on - Putin inevitably committed new ones. Each new turn of this spiral became shorter..." (From the chapter: Epilogue Do people trust Putin?)
"...Both Putin and the Soviet secret services were fascinated by poisons... ...Putin is not young and lives under stress, he has had injuries and illnesses, but the main reason for his fixation on health is still paranoia..." (From the chapter: Chronic pancreatitis Is Putin afraid?)
