Both Yeltsin and Putin don’t care about Russia or the nation The difference is that one is working for the benefit of his country (regardless why he is doing it), and the other one was working for the benefits of those whose interest was to weaken and exploit his country.
Politicians of course work for themselves. That is true of ours and as well as theirs.
Superficial order, it is not everything what citizen expect from his country. (Perhaps Russia is a bit different due to previously mentioned specific Russian mentality) So if Putin is not able to provide necessary conditions to build modern state, someone with an idea should replace him. But this is not possible because former KGB apparatus consolidated all powers and wont give it back. Endless loop…
What would you say if Putin became Gazprom chairman, the new oligarch?
