This is the story of the birth of a modern dictator. The new president, expected to act as a mere obedient puppet in the hands of the oligarchs, is now eager to become an absolute ruler and is systematically destroying anyone who stands in his way. He even turns against his “creator” Boris Berezovsky: a mathematician and oligarch who, in Putin’s case, badly miscalculated. This is a remarkable deep dive into the mentality of a nation that almost unanimously supports the bloody war in Ukraine.
