Hermitage Reveals Russian Police Fraud

Investing in Russia for someone who is not a Kremlin insider equal to playing Russian roulette with a pistol that has five loaded chambers....

During most of 20th century, Russia was closed from foreign investors by an iron curtain. The country was under a communist dictatorship whose ideology saw foreign capital as the ultimate evil and any business deals with foreigners bypassing government channels were treated as treason, sometimes punishable by death.
With the collapse of the communist regime came Russian industrys desperate need of foreign investments, technology and expertise.

Russian economic growth is an illusion. The Russian government position is socialistic and nationalistic in nature. Until there is a fundamental change in the Russian legal and political institutions, any investments in Russia can be treated as high-risk and speculative

@dmizz310 So true, dont blame the nation blame fucking Putin and co.

@AsterixYZ I consider only revamping the whole government will change the course of Russia, Medvedev is just a puppet and Putin is playing with the country and the people to help criminals countinue stealing and corrupting with no problems.

you are stupid.
Russia is not communistic country
and another your words were junks

@500NELSON
Who is "so stupid to invest money in Communistic dictatorship Russia?"
Hmmm... probably Mr. Browder, could share with you a name or two of those *stupid* folks; after all, he was a head of biggest investment firm in Russia from what I hear...

"You shall not blame the nation"

And why not? People blame the germans for Hitler so I think it is only fair that Russia gets also blamed for what their leaders in the Kremlin do.

@ss90ss444
Why not? It might escape you that only ignorant people blame Germans for Hitler; those who know better, are aware of such fact that first concentration camps were built by Hitler for Germans and no *freedom-loving nations* were around to help them out and to condemn such actions; they were too busy trading with criminal regime. History only repeats itself as far as I can see.

@ss90ss444 Don't invest and don't blame Russian's, if you invested blame yourself.
