Many billionaires in Russia., I was particularly interested in Khodorkovsky who disagreed with Putin at a large meeting of Russian rich fellows and was sent to Siberia for awhile, ended up exiled in France, I believe. There was a youtube video of the large round-table meeting where Putin got mad at him and sent him off.
I occasionally look at an online publication called “Russia Beyond the Headlines,” that features cultural things like great recipes, pictures and reports on old churches, etc.
