ZEE BUSINESS BEST B SCHOOL SURVEY
the hitman ain’t goin away... Having said all that, one cannot simply wish away the fact that for all it matters, Putin has depended far too long on building his fort and forte using strongarm, some say hitman Mafiosi tactics.
Niall Green of the International Committee of the Fourth International wrote a few weeks back this year, “When Putin, who rules as a mafia don, can justifiably call you on the carpet for corruption, you are finished politically.” The ‘War on Terrorism’ brand Karl Rove – also the well acclaimed architect for Bush getting elected President twice – talked to students of Loyola Marymount University in Los Angeles this month of February 2009 and openly stated his views on Putin, “This guy exudes toughness. You’re around this guy and you think this is a really tough mafia guy. He was KGB. He was there pulling out fingernails and putting those battery cables on.”
The world famous Sigrid Rausing writes in the New Statesman this month, “The Committee to Protect Journalists estimates that at least 49 [journalists] have been killed in Russia since 1992. Only in Iraq and Algeria is it more dangerous to be a journalist... The FSB [Russian Federal Security Service], or rogue elements within it, ultra-nationalists, Chechen henchmen and corrupt mafia-style businessmen form a circle of violence.” Garry Kasparov, also a leading political heavyweight in Russia, wrote in the Wall Street Journal, “If you really wish to understand the Putin regime in depth... if you are in a real hurry to become an expert on the Russian government, [I can recommend you...] the DVD section, where you can find Mr. Puzo’s works on film. The Godfather trilogy is a good place to start, but do not leave out The Last Don, Omerta and The Sicilian.” Well, they certainly don’t mince their words!
Unless Putin cleanses this image and earns respect in global forums, it is quite evident that he and his coterie will only end up making Russia dramatically worse off once Putin is out of power, for Putin might be a patriot, but not the others necessarily. And the worse part of the whole story is, nobody knows who will really be Putin’s successor... What? What did you say? Medevedev? Med who?!?
