the West had great hopes for a more open, democratic Russia.== Here is a democratic Russia of boris eltsin. The tag say: Do you remember 1990s? The whole "civilized West" are our friends and USA is the best one. Check this Youtube channel: It is called "Then and Now". All clips start with then 1990s of a "democratic Russia" before Putin but end with now today: authoritarian Putin Russia. You can understand why the people support Putin.
