Vladimir Putin stands as a pariah to the West, wielding the power to incite nuclear devastation and threatening to do so. His actions include invading neighboring countries like Ukraine, interfering in Western elections, and orchestrating assassinations. Despite leading an autocratic and corrupt regime, many Russians continue to support him, experiencing improved living conditions amid Western sanctions. Under his leadership, Russia has reasserted itself as a formidable global player. Philip Short's biography delves deeply into the complex personality of this enigmatic leader, challenging many preconceived notions about Putin and his Russia. Since becoming President in 2000, Putin's primary goal has been to restore Russia's status as a great power, free from Western constraints. The book investigates the experiences and forces that shaped his worldview and his motivations for challenging the American-led world order that has maintained peace since the Cold War's end. While it seeks to explain his actions, it does not excuse them; Putin's regime is characterized by darkness and a relentless pursuit of his objectives by any means necessary. A closer look reveals that much of the common understanding of Putin is based on half-truths. This biography offers vital insights into Russia's ruler and prompts a reevaluation of long-held beliefs regarding global politics since the Cold War.
