Former Russian Prime Minister (2000-2004) and opposition politician
“Putin is driving the country into a dead-end. I cannot rule out that everything could end with calls for revolution, mostly from the young people of the country, who have no education, no jobs, and can see no future for themselves in this country. This new generation is virtually devoid of values, and that is a huge tragedy for Russia, and for us all. The Putin regime has no potential for development. I think that it will cease to exist earlier than we expect, but it will be a very painful process. We have to do everything that we can to soften the consequences of the natural collapse of this unnatural system.”
