Its a good podcast about the overt facts, however

It a good podcast about the overt fact of Putin's rise to power, which I enjoyed and recommend, however I did note the absence of any 'inside' detail which would help to explain why and how this 'nobody' apparently rose so suddently and dramatically to be President of Russia. Perhaps that's only a story that Putin could tell.

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
