Description

Vladimir Putin has transformed Russia from a fledgling democracy into a police state. This biography by Angus Roxburgh explores the dramatic struggle for Russia's future under his leadership. Drawing on exclusive interviews and insights gained while working as a Kremlin insider, Roxburgh charts Putin's evolution from reformer to autocrat. Roxburgh argues that the West failed to understand Russia's fears and aspirations following the collapse of communism, throwing away opportunities to bring the country back into the fold. The updated edition includes new chapters on Putin's relationships with Donald Trump, his involvement in Ukraine and Syria, and his ruthless attempts to silence opposition. Through Roxburgh's account, readers gain a nuanced understanding of Putin's rise to power and the complex factors driving Russia's current trajectory.
