Interesting insight on the election of December 2007, why it was held, and the differences between warring factions from the FSB, the military and other parts of the government and business leading to conflicts just before the elections. The election and the vote for putin was Putins way of reasserting his authority in Russia even as he nears th expiry of his term and names a successor. It shows how fragile the situation politically is in Russia even as the country has made economic proress from the Yeltsin years and a succession is not to be taken lightly to continue the work of economic progress and further development of democratic processes without the chaos of the 1990's.

We took a different way to help millions around the world build educated informed mindsets that affects and shapes their lives. For a future that is open, global and digital, with everyone having access to high quality information. We believe in the renewal of America, renewal of Europe, the renewal of India, the rest of Asia, Latin America and Africa. The renewal of our supply chains, health, education, infrastructure, as we rebuild our countries after the pandemic. Literacy and knowledge we believe cannot thrive and grow in a world of web bots, web crawlers, or AI. This requires human curiosity, human learning, and human imagination. We take as inspiration the saying- “One has to be free, and as broad as sky. One has to have a mind that is crystal clear, only then can truth shine in it.” Every contribution whether big or small is precious- in this crisis and ahead.
