Episode notes
I find it very interesting because obviously I read British publications and my Russian isn't that good, mate. But one of the things that I find actually deeply unhelpful is when people look at Russia through a British or European lens. So take the example of democracy with Boris Yeltsin. Explain to us what does democracy, for example, mean to a Russian? Well, so he's said this many times, Russia has never had democracy,. The only experience Russia had with democracy was the period between 1991 when Boris YelTSin comes to power, the Soviet Union collapses, and 1999 when Vladimir Putin comes to power.
