Welcome to Russian Politics! A site directed at learning about one of the worlds most powerful nations. Russia holds a permanent seat on the UN Security Council but regardless, they are still often criticized as having 'Cold War Hangover'. The transition from a Communist state into democracy has not been a fast, bloodless or easy journey and they can expect to struggle with the 2014 Olympic Games exposing Russia publicly once again. There is a price to pay for freedom.

Graft

'Graft' is political corruption that is the misuse of government powers/ legislation for private gain. 
In Russia, the goal of President Dmitry Medvedev is to eliminate this from the country. Even though he understands it is going to take time, it is a process that he must go through.
