Leonid Mlechin. Putin. Russia is faced with a choice (№ 274784)

There are two reasons that push policy upwards. One burning inside a lust for power. Say this without a shadow of condemnation. Officer, who dreams of becoming a General, and ought not to be. He is not endowed with the necessary for a commander, and command qualities. The ambition and ambition of the necessary policies. He must want power and to be able to handle it. The second reason is a kind of messianism, the inner assurance policy that he is born in order to accomplish something great, to realize an idea or dream. Both Putin and Medvedev was at the helm sufficiently random. At least they're not wanted. But Putin woke up all these passions. And Medvedev, I think, deprived them.
