#SMASHING FOUR DECKS PRO#

Billed as the greatest threat to Putin’s power to that point, experts, opposition politicians, and foreign leaders yet again united in dubbing it “ the beginning of the end of Putin.” Using a combination of carrots and sticks-electoral transparency measures and selective repression-the furor subsided, and Putin endured.

#SMASHING FOUR DECKS PRO#

Still emerging from the Great Recession in 2011-12, the pro forma reelection of Putin and his United Russia party was rocked by anti-corruption protests in Moscow and across Russia. Yet thanks to sound economic policymaking, the Kremlin withstood the storm. More political obituaries heralded “ the end of the Putin era”: Now that the dynamic Russian economy on which Putin’s legitimacy was based was dead and buried, surely his political career would be next. The predictions of Putin’s imminent demise have been around for almost the entirety of his rule.Īfter succeeding Boris Yeltsin as president in 2000, Putin’s popularity was bolstered by the dramatic growth of the Russian economy-an average of 7 percent per year for nearly a decade-but the tragically bungled government responses to both the 2002 Moscow theater siege and the 2004 Beslan school attack led to premature political eulogies for Putin.Įverything changed in 2008, when Putin’s invasion of Georgia, the global financial crisis, and the collapse in world oil prices wiped out $1 trillion in Russian stocks and led to an 8 percent contraction in GDP. The end-of-Putin genre is nothing new and includes (ultimately false) prognostications by all manner of respected journalists, academics, Russian opposition politicians, and even Western leaders. The Russian Armed Forces’ recent disorganized retreat and “ regrouping” in the face of a dramatic Ukrainian offensive have unleashed yet another wave of premature speculation about Putin’s impending doom, unbalanced by any consideration of the sources of his political resilience and stability, which have kept him in power through one political crisis after another. Virtually every Kremlin setback gets framed as “the beginning of the end of Putin” and his regime. It’s an understandable wish-but one that so far is rooted more in optimism about karmic justice than in reality.
