25 years ago, Vladimir Putin became the president of Russia. It seems like enough time to know everything about him. But ask yourself: are you sure you are aware of Putin's real biography?
All this time, Putin has not so much ruled the country as created a legend about himself. A legend in the espionage sense of the word. He crafted a biography and an image for himself, more accurately, different images – depending on the moment, he presented himself as a liberal, a conservative, a leftist, a rightist, and so on multiple times. To deceive you, he is ready to do anything: kill people, hide and re-hide his own wealth, distort reality in the most incredible ways, not shunning lies about the people he holds most dear.
In this book, we will tell you the true story of Putin, his entourage, and their hypocrisy. Much of what you will read, you have never known. Or you forgot. Or did not pay attention to.
