Once again you are assuming. I did in fact see that but it too does not tell how the statue came to be resurrected. The only mention of Putin was that he once worked in the KGB.

It was originally put to an online vote, and it wasn't going well for Felix to be resurrected, as the 13th century Prince Alexander Nevsky had a 10 point advantage. Was that why the Moscow Mayor pulled it before it was scheduled to conclude?

If you notice, Putin wasn't even at the unveiling. Kind of strange if as you claim Putin played an integral part of the resurrection, don't you think?

Never mind, what am I thinking, you let others think for you.

They even turned it to face the little, innocuous Baltic states.

“SVR Director Sergei Naryshkin said at the ceremony for the statue’s unveiling that Dzerzhinsky’s face on the original and new statues is turned toward Poland and Baltic states ‘because the threat to Russia from the northwest remains.’”
