The recent catastrophic accident at Russia's largest hydroelectric plant has reminded leaders in Moscow of the urgent need for inspections and repairs of the country's mostly Soviet-era infrastructure. Long before the deadly accident in Siberia (in August), Russia's Emergency Situations Ministry had warned that the dam at the power plant was in a dangerous state of neglect, yet little was done over the next 10 years to prevent its tragic and costly failure. Anya Ardayeva reports from Moscow.
