This monumental biography delves into the life of one of the most influential leaders of the past two decades. Vladimir Putin, viewed as a pariah by the West, holds the power to devastate the United States and Europe with nuclear weapons, a threat he has openly made. His regime has invaded neighboring countries, notably Ukraine, interfered in Western elections, and orchestrated assassinations both domestically and abroad. Despite this, many Russians continue to support him, enjoying improved living standards even amid Western sanctions. Under Putin's rule, Russia has re-emerged as a formidable global player. The biography offers an in-depth exploration of Putin's complex personality, challenging many preconceptions about his leadership and the nature of his regime. Since ascending to the presidency in 2000, his primary goal has been to restore Russia's status as a great power, free from Western constraints. The narrative examines the experiences that shaped him and his motivations for opposing the American-led world order established after the Cold War. While it does not excuse his actions, the book reveals that much of what is commonly believed about Putin is based on half-truths, providing a clearer understanding of Russia's ruler and prompting a reevaluation of assumptions about global politics since the Cold War's conclusion.
