Russia Rising…
From the ashes of the Soviet Union, Russia has again risen to world power status, flushed with money, oil and attitude. The country has embraced capitalism and flung its door wide open to all the luxuries money can buy. Yet dark forces remain. The country is dominated by one man, Vladimir Putin, and democracy is dead. This series looks at the winners and losers of Russia’s resurgence and asks why people are willing to support Putinism, and exchange freedom for wealth. From military brass to social elites, oligarchs to construction workers, this series looks at those participating in the modern Russia.
