Vladimir Putin has transformed Russia from a fledgling democracy into a police state, and in 2020, a constitutional change granted him the means to remain in power until 2036. In this acclaimed political biography, former BBC Moscow correspondent Angus Roxburgh provides a comprehensive account of the dramatic struggle for Russia's future under Putin's leadership. Roxburgh delves into the transformation of Putin from a reformer to an autocrat, his quest for Western respect and the fear and contempt he earned. Drawing on exclusive interviews in Russia, where he worked as a Kremlin insider advising Putin on press relations, as well as in the US and Europe, Roxburgh argues that the West missed opportunities to engage with Russia after the collapse of communism, failing to understand its fears and aspirations. This updated edition includes new chapters on Putin and Donald Trump, Russia's wars in Ukraine and Syria, and Putin's ruthless attempt to eliminate political opposition.
