Did the Putin fan club see Four corners programme about Putin last night? It didn't provide much information that wasn't already known, but it did provide a chronological overview of Putin's rise to power and how he has gained total control of Russia by progressively breaking down democracy that Yeltsin had brought to the country. Yeltsin had been conned and lied to by Putin and allegedly admitted to deeply regretting picking Putin as his successor when he realised how Putin was turning back the clock in Russia. Putin's fraudulent elections were also featured, as were his successful efforts to cause chaos in the Western world to weaken it. For those who haven't seen the programme, it is worth a watch. I doubt the Putin fan club will.
