Synopsis "What Russians Think"

The book tells the story of modern-day Russia on a world stage, as seen from theRussian perspective. A vocal activist of the Russian diaspora in London, the author setsout the historic background to the Russian prevailing worldview, and explains theRussian sentiment on issues of public interest, including: Putin, Democracy, sex andrelationships, Gay rights, Ukraine and Crimea, U.S. sanctions, the 2016 Presidential elections, et cetera.Stories of Boris Berezovsky, Boris Nemtsov, the novichok poisonings, and the currentsituation around Alexey Navalny, who has once been among the author's personalfriends, are set up and explained as they are viewed by the majority in Russia.The author goes into detail concerning history, origins and chaotic nature of the Russiansanctions in the United States, using the stories of certain specific sanctionedindividuals, and the effects the sanctions are having on the country and its elites. Shedebunks certain myths of Russiagate, explaining, for example, the error in translationof Putin's statement at the Putin-Trump summit in Helsinki press-conference, as well assetting why the common Western understanding of how Russian interference in the 2016election may have worked, is implausible.As a recurring storytelling device, the author uses her family's history in the SovietUnion, her privileged childhood, her memories of the USSR's collapse, and later thestory of her own adventures in Russia and its politics.
