"Russia is as corrupt a country as you can get."
your financial success in Russia depended entirely on your relationship to Putin ...and that wasn't guaranteed to last as many important men found out
we really don't know how much PUTIN WAS "GIFTED"to encourage favours but I suspect that castle is just the tip of the ice berg .

Putin is a lot more sane than Hitler but one thing they have in common is unlimited power within their own country and I suspect the feeling that developed from that of invincibility .
Maybe Putin is lucky to have the bubble pricked earlier than Hitler had his .
