Democratic West:. The whore their mother, the half world were crippled colony casewise, they did not work, the tithe was collected only, they themselves had plenty of time to be being democratized so and to improve one's mind.
And if one of the countries do not insert his head in him the járomukba, it is turned upside down. If he does not allow it, it dictatorship (Putyin). .........igaz-e, (true) you monkeys? the colony, big one loses weight the trouble.!
12 years for the dictator for life so far. And the pussy has had the worst face lift since Joselyn Wildenstein. Says a lot about Russian plastic surgery.
The USA simply doesn't like Putin because he doesn't answer to them...."God bless the child who holds his own!"....Putin is also against this New World Order one world government.....
Remember me saying it, on 4th of March we will cast our ballots and on the 5th there will be massive Protests. I live in Moscow, I took part in many demos. And unless Putin will resort to strong measures. there will be Russia without Putin in 1 or 2 or 3 years.
Menschen! Putin ist überhaupt nicht legitim. Aber warum akzeptieren die EU die Wahlergebnisse??? Öl für Zustimmung??? So etwas geht nicht in der EU, oder was?
Hey, guys! I live in Moscow, which is far from being the pooreest city in the country.
And I would say that Putin and the Government suck together, what would you say if you knew that a university professor gets salary of about 600 euros per month, the answer is quite clear - PUTIN SUCKS!

Was Russia so fantastically democratic in the 90's? if so then I'm against democracy. A clan of criminals stole the country's wealth, Yeltsin's thugs attacked the parliament. Putin is far from perfect, but he has made life better for most Russians.
No, I am Russian and I know that Putin for 12 years has not solved the problem of corruption, demography and migration of Muslims in Russia. sit on the oil - gas pipe and talk about the "modernization" I can also. The only thing he has done good - which is not ruined the country, as its predecessor.

@lexazver Thiefs like Nemcov, Kasianov, Khodorkovsky and Prokhorov those were the people on high heels in the 1990s in Russia during its deepest economic crisis. Do you want them to return? And what about Navalny and the Henry Jackson Society he is associated with... another pawn in the american hands that was selected during his studies in Yale. Do you want Russia to become a slave state to america?
Putin doesn't want the Yanks interfering with Russia. Barack would do the same if Putin was backing someone he didn't approve of taking over in Mexico or Canada. I love shit like this, a great watch and about time there was something worth watching on the BBC..!
This film is pure propaganda by the illuminati west. They are jealous of putins achievements and popularity and they HAD to do something so they staged these protests with only a small portion of population.... nice try... guess what color will be the next revolution... blue as the blue color in the flag of USA....
@DefaultPosition i see it differrent.... if you have watched it... haven't Khodorkovsky looked like a innocent victim to you? There was not a single word about how Khodorkovsky established Yukos... his tax evasion and money laundering... and what more... murder. He payed for several assasinations!!! Yet the movie was how Putin have sent 'innocent' Khodorkovsky to jail after being offended by him publicly...?! Thats laughable...
@lexazver and what will happen? couple of thousands of people on the streets again? Well that makes millions of people satisfied with his rule. Ket me ask you a thing... do you want the putin to step down just because it is putin or you have some opposition leader in mind that will be better than him? You know its very hard to find a nationalist with a strong determination to lead t he country. Russia have him... but people like you are brainwashed to believe he is a thief.
@Flankymanga,couple of thousand heh?next thing you'll be saying that these,40k officially and 100k unofficially,attendees were paid for by the west?riight..your quote - ''but people like you are brainwashed to believe he is a thief''just makes me think you know very little about whats going on.I worked for a fund and we were involved with yukos so i know a thing or two about who was involved and who was the beneficiary.You' are right about 1 thing though-lack of proper opposition
@lexazver well you should said from the beginning that you were a Khodorkovsky man. I am not saying that Putin haven't used dirty means to enforce his future political power. But he didn't had many options. If he would not stop Khodorkovsky in his footsteps... today Russia would have been a American slave country. But... Khodorkovsky himself as many oligarchs rose to power through a shady privatisation of Yeltsins era. Putin has returned what was originally a state property.
@Flankymanga Russia seems very resistant to diversifying its economy. They've been trying for at least 10 years now. But the hi-tech technology sector seems to be picking up.
Quite alot of foreign investment will be coming in for the various global sports events over the next few years, so I hope they will put it to more development of products.
The world cannot rely on the U.S. being the sole economic engine of the world. There is WAY too much corruption there.
@needtoalwayslearn very true... but among the stable economic future development there needs to be political stability. People and business knows more or less what to expect from Putin - can we say this for other presidential candidates? No... except what we can say that some of them are western puppets.
@PassOnTheTruth I thought the doco was showing how Putin was fighting back by whatever means to avoid the oligarchs using what they call "a democratic system" in running Russia again.
Whoever wants to see who Khodorkovsky is and how False this documentary is then Watch this:In the video they said khodorkovsky wanted to sell a part of Yukos to Exxon mobil from US yes??Well turns out he sold his share of Yukos Before his arrest to guess who??JACOB ROTHSCHILD :) Who does not believe even wikipedia has this info.Only the Blind believe.Some aspects are real but they are put in a way that is propagandistic :) course they want to see this type of men like Khodorkovsky ruling Russia
Fuck Russian communists!Beggars! The West gave them if they have little decent life and Americans feed all world!Show me one country where Russians gave the best life?Still own Russian people living in MUD and Hunger!As West pulled Russia on the feet,they will bring them down!Cuba was blooming under the USA and as Russia involved today they live in the SHIT!What doing the Russia now for Cuba?Where Russia steps in everything is fucked up,but West build and gives a freedom!
Problem with Chechnya is that there were 2 Chechnyas. 1 - the original Chennya, before 1917 Revolution and 2- Chechnya with territories given added by Stalin that included the flat land with Grozni in it. As far as Russians are concerned, Chchens can be independent in their original country.
Maybe all the protests that we have currently seen and how the western media hailed the protests in Moscow as the beginning of the end for Putin is just a show bought out and organised with the funds exclusively coming from russian (non-state owned) energy, mainly oil tycoons. They want Putin out since he's their main competitor in oil/gas. The oligarchs are trying to buy out the public and fund/organise protests against Putin.
@TMOTheMarkedOne Come and spend some time any city of Chechnya among native Chechens, saying when asked, that you are from US or western Europe. You will survive there no longer than on Afganistan-only couple of days at most. They are Muslim fanatics.And US just tries to divert they fanatism from oneself towards Russia by support for Chechen terrorists. Imagine Russian politicians supporting IRA terrorists and naming them "rebels" ON Russian TV.That's what western propaganda does towards Russia
@russky1802 You posted:@anonymous24604632 Well, maybe we shouldn't go back that far in history. It is true that a lot of native Americans were killed; at the same time, what happened to indigenous people in Siberia when Russians colonized it? Also, I don't remember them (the BBC) using the word "rebels" in this particular documentary. It seems you're simply quoting Putin because that's exactly what he said.
@russky1802. History tends to repeat itself, that is why I remind you of the past. US acts toward many nations the way they did when they colonized N. America. Russian never did such atrocities to native tribes in Russia as US did. Any unbiased historian will explain you this, there is enormous body of evidence for this. The video says "Chechen rebels" on the minute 04:18 - "By the time Putin was elected president, Russian forces in Chechnya have pushed the REBEL FIGHTERS into the mountains",etc
И без этого фильма все знают, что у Путина есть жажда власти, он авторитарный президент. Иначе он не может, так как выходец из советского КГБ не может быть либералом и демократом. Факт и то, что он спас Россию от расспада. Но, по моему, он свою историческую миссию завершил и не надо было опять в презеденты гнаться. Ему следовало бы с честью уйти, оставаясь в па,яти у россиян героем нации. К сожелению, жажда власти взяла вверх.
@Traxal У большинства Россиян другое мнение! Путин национальный лидер и патриот! Я бы желал видеть например вместо Медведева - Сергея Иванова, но подозреваю, что Запад поднял такой вой что "мама не горюй". Так что мы имеем"либерала ДАМ" со всеми вытекающими последствиями. Если бы я был на вашем месте, то восполнил пробелы в образовании просмотром полезных док. фильмов на этом ресурсе. В Америку не приезжайте, с таким ником здесь могут сделать бо-бо по самые помидоры.
Putin has raised the standard of living immensely, he raised the average wage to 8 times the old amount. The reason the west doesn't like him is because he doesn't take orders from Washington like the rest. He can actively stand up to the states and tell them to "fuck off" and stop interfering.
Its funny how America was pissed that Russia did a Military exercise with Venezuela but at the same time they want to put Missiles in Poland.
@TMOTheMarkedOne I can reply to you with not the least anger when you/western media talk about Chechen "rebels" instead of saying honestly who they are. I am against terrorism in any form just like most n this forum. However, people do not perceive someone else pain as sharply as their own. That is why you are so stern about IRA and tend to forgive and forget what Chechen terrorist have done to Russian children and women, This is called personal bias and hypocrisy.
The second part of this film (I just watched it) is even worse than this one. It is pure anti-Putin propaganda with lots of baseless accusations, total brainwashing of western population in anti-Putin mindset. All subversion and interference by western powers is called 'pro-democracy', while any resistance is called anti-democratic. DAMN LIES!!!!
I had a better opinion about BBC.. Expected decent documentary not stupid propaganda and it doesn't matter whether it's telling truth or not... it's worth mainstream Russian channels.. shame on you BBC
its a good documentary ... that message from the taliban nd Russia's reply didn't suit them ,that "F" word z undiplomatic ,that guy ruined Russia's history by using such cheap language...never underestimate anybody...
@needtoalwayslearn i am professional intepreter and i can assure you that translators did poor job in correctly translating what different russian politicians said in this video. may be editor of this video may certain changes to translators text. it smells bad.
Very Interesting, I really don't know what the real story is, but from this piece I'd say he looks like George Washington compared to his US counterparts.
You are in the minority and Putin will be elected in march. Putin is no lier or corrupt. Putin is a great leader and I as Russian support him. Putin 2012!
You go Kostya ! Putin in 2000, 2004, 2012 and then 2024 !! Because nobody can do a better job. It is 21st century and presidents are being elected through democratic elections around the world. Putin is not Russian Zar !! I feel sorry for your comments.
Putin 2012! because he is the best candidate today. Next elections 2018. People will have new choices again. If Putin performs well in next 6 years he has a chance to get reelected. It is up to voters. Putin is not a tsar, but a popular, democratically elected politician.
This could have been a great documentary if it wasnt for the narration which is totally disconnected from what the interviewees are actually saying. Condi Rice says at one moment that she felt that the cold war was over. How about Putin is a bigger man than anyone in the Senate and helped for the greater good. I doubt anyone in the US government would do the same in Russia's hour of need.
We saw similar documentaries a few years before Iraq's governement was toppled. In a few years they'll be a coup against Putin (sponsored by the west) and people will think back to this documentary and say: "the narrator said that Putin was evil so he must be".
@royalyankeebolshevik the west not only wants to remove Putin but also t incite civil war in Russia. That is is usual technique. Divide and conquer. The eaten up a lot of Planet Earth resources on their own land and their are looking for new resources from outside. Now they brainwash everyone, including they own citizens, to prepare public opinion for the justificstion of their intervention in Russia. Paul Joseph Goebbels should be proud of you, BBC! You outperforming him with all your tricks!
I cannot understand why the West suggests that Khodorkovskiy is democratic leader? He was just a member of organized crime group which robbed Soviet heritage. The film is interesting but has some double standards cliches.
@Skypilotbaby poor boy, you have been heavily brainwashed. read serious history monographs and analyze pure facts and you will see that Russia has saved the world from Nazi terror.
@798unionpipeliner just to remind you of some inconvenient (to US) truth: during the early of WWII US OFFICIALLY declared its NEUTRAL position towards Nazi Germany. That is official fact (not from the "Russian" books).
Stronger and less democratic Russia.How do you define democracy,you BBC people?Is it democratic when a minority of people hold most of the countries assets to feed on them on their own?Is it democratic when private companies make TONS of bilions every year but refuse to pay taxes?Is it democratic you people laying garbage all the time to a person who pulled a country out of the shithole and gave it back to its righteous holders,that is the people.When you get on the dance floor you have to dance
Well looking at this "documentary" made me think...how desperate the western countries are. First the the british spy stone in russia, then the "russian" activists who went against Putin by giving money to sellouts...tststs..thats a shame...waste of money from west to a lost cause. And why now with this documentary? I can smell the sweat and fear....well, its like we always say, what goes around comes around. And putin...comes around behind you people, and now.....its payback time.
Where is the documentary about how Europeans invaded Libya to get it's oil?
Where is the documentary about how Europeans support tyrant's in middle east who kill their people?
Where is the documentary about how Europeans are waging a war against their own people?
Where is the documentary about how Europeans are waging wars in which their people are sent across the world to die in Afghanistan and Iraq so they could have cheap oil and stay filthy rich while those same men die?
This is Western bullshit as usual. Where is the movie about how the West dominated the american continent? Genocides of indians, exploitation of their resources, slavery, etc.
Why don't they show the positive changes that Russia has gone through under Putin?
Watch this movie with some pop corn and take it as what it is: a hollywood film, entertainment and propaganda.
The truth is, the West is scared to death about the rapid growth of the BRICS and the demise of the dollar.
"Soviets who grew up in soviet poverty learned to love their bling". Okay, to me this sounds utterly disrespectful to Russians. Even though they weren't rich as now, I know they still had that sense elegancy.. look at Russia's music, ballet and novels.!!! Russians knows how to take care!!!!
Pure Propaganda with hidden anti-Slavic agenda. The good news is: you would not succeed. To be demonized by "western media" is not a stigma any more. Clean up your own back yard! Stop stealing money and truth from your own people, and stop scaring them.
Who defends Russia? Third world trash countries lol
Don't think Russia friendship with China will last China and Russia are still in a border dispute and don't forget how China acts when it comes to border dispute :p
Well, I guess that's better than weaker, but more democratic(read: oligarchic) Russia with empty budget, tiny foreign-exchange reserves, vital assets sold to foreign companies and the parliament bought up by mind-boggingly rich oligarchs, who were welcomed in London, with all their money and all their influence on Russian politics.
Anglo-saxons can't still get over that this didn't happen, eh? :>
Exactly, why doesn't the western media point out that Russia did not built it's empire on the slavery of Africa?
Why don't they point out that when the BBC lied about Pakistan in their bullshit documentary called SECRET PAKISTAN, that Pakistan left America and went with Russia!
Russia even endorsed the Full SCO membership for Pakistan! Thank you Putin and thank you Russia! We Pakistanis never trust the BBC propaganda which also lies about us!
@AllahHelpsKlitschko We Serbians also know that they lie about not only Russia but everything that comes out of their filthy mouth's.
For them it is ok for Khodorkovsky to buy parliament member but its not ok to arrest him? Let us look at the occupy movement in USA and protesters in GB. In Britain people get 3 years in jail for facebook messages. DemoNazy in Great Britain!
Actual situation in Russia after Putin's 12 years and so-high price on oil is pretty bad. True movie about Putin should be much harder than this one. Guys, just try to read NAVALNY-EN page on livejournal and you'll get a more objective view on the current situation in Russia.
I'm a bit surprised people call this film western propaganda. I mean, yes in the end they did say Putin bent the law to put his political opponent into prison and all that "democracyindanger" bs. But before this it was said that Khodorkovsky was buying votes in the parliament, wanted to sell huge Russian oil resources to americans, admitted he would never miss the opportunity to bent the law himself (use loopholes - we all know what this means coming from a 90's businessman in Russia), etc.
>>hey did say Putin bent the law to put his political opponent into prison and all that "democracyindanger" bs
The fact that an oligarch who stole the most from Russian state in criminal privatization schemes and was working to sell the country to his western pals went to jail after a court trial is presented as evidence of 'Putin's authoritarianism' and 'disrespect for law'.
Democratic West:. The whore their mother, the half world were crippled colony casewise, they did not work, the tithe was collected only, they themselves had plenty of time to be being democratized so and to improve one's mind.
And if one of the countries do not insert his head in him the járomukba, it is turned upside down. If he does not allow it, it dictatorship (Putyin). .........igaz-e, (true) you monkeys? the colony, big one loses weight the trouble.!

@lexazver well you should said from the beginning that you were a Khodorkovsky man. I am not saying that Putin haven't used dirty means to enforce his future political power. But he didn't had many options. If he would not stop Khodorkovsky in his footsteps... today Russia would have been a American slave country. But... Khodorkovsky himself as many oligarchs rose to power through a shady privatisation of Yeltsins era. Putin has returned what was originally a state property.

@Flankymanga Russia seems very resistant to diversifying its economy. They've been trying for at least 10 years now. But the hi-tech technology sector seems to be picking up.
Quite alot of foreign investment will be coming in for the various global sports events over the next few years, so I hope they will put it to more development of products.
The world cannot rely on the U.S. being the sole economic engine of the world. There is WAY too much corruption there.

Problem with Chechnya is that there were 2 Chechnyas. 1 - the original Chennya, before 1917 Revolution and 2- Chechnya with territories given added by Stalin that included the flat land with Grozni in it. As far as Russians are concerned, Chchens can be independent in their original country.

Maybe all the protests that we have currently seen and how the western media hailed the protests in Moscow as the beginning of the end for Putin is just a show bought out and organised with the funds exclusively coming from russian (non-state owned) energy, mainly oil tycoons. They want Putin out since he's their main competitor in oil/gas. The oligarchs are trying to buy out the public and fund/organise protests against Putin.

@russky1802 You posted:@anonymous24604632 Well, maybe we shouldn't go back that far in history. It is true that a lot of native Americans were killed; at the same time, what happened to indigenous people in Siberia when Russians colonized it? Also, I don't remember them (the BBC) using the word "rebels" in this particular documentary. It seems you're simply quoting Putin because that's exactly what he said.
anonymous24604632 1 month ago
@russky1802. History tends to repeat itself, that is why I remind you of the past. US acts toward many nations the way they did when they colonized N. America. Russian never did such atrocities to native tribes in Russia as US did. Any unbiased historian will explain you this, there is enormous body of evidence for this. The video says "Chechen rebels" on the minute 04:18 - "By the time Putin was elected president, Russian forces in Chechnya have pushed the REBEL FIGHTERS into the mountains",etc

И без этого фильма все знают, что у Путина есть жажда власти, он авторитарный президент. Иначе он не может, так как выходец из советского КГБ не может быть либералом и демократом. Факт и то, что он спас Россию от расспада. Но, по моему, он свою историческую миссию завершил и не надо было опять в презеденты гнаться. Ему следовало бы с честью уйти, оставаясь в па,яти у россиян героем нации. К сожелению, жажда власти взяла вверх.

Putin has raised the standard of living immensely, he raised the average wage to 8 times the old amount. The reason the west doesn't like him is because he doesn't take orders from Washington like the rest. He can actively stand up to the states and tell them to "fuck off" and stop interfering.
Its funny how America was pissed that Russia did a Military exercise with Venezuela but at the same time they want to put Missiles in Poland.

@TMOTheMarkedOne I can reply to you with not the least anger when you/western media talk about Chechen "rebels" instead of saying honestly who they are. I am against terrorism in any form just like most n this forum. However, people do not perceive someone else pain as sharply as their own. That is why you are so stern about IRA and tend to forgive and forget what Chechen terrorist have done to Russian children and women, This is called personal bias and hypocrisy.

This could have been a great documentary if it wasnt for the narration which is totally disconnected from what the interviewees are actually saying. Condi Rice says at one moment that she felt that the cold war was over. How about Putin is a bigger man than anyone in the Senate and helped for the greater good. I doubt anyone in the US government would do the same in Russia's hour of need.
