15 Years of Putin rule in one infograph. 25 June 2014. (See enlarged version inside.)

"No wonder so many governments around the world are jealous of what he's accomplished - taking a failing Russia from Communism to a successful country - while these same envious European and American leaders put their own countries further into debt, by following the failed Socialist policies Russia learned from.

While Obama is wrapped up with the influx of illegals into America, a tanking economy, scandal after scandal, sticking his nose into Syria, Iraq and Ukraine, Putin scores another historic victory: Austria Signs South Stream Pipeline Deal In Defiance Of Europe.

Is it any wonder the Russian people give him an approval rating of 80%?"

Candobetter.net Editor comment: This article does not take into account oil and gas reserves and the ability to realise them, nor does it analyse the dirigist quality of Russian government. It claims that the US and non-Russian Europe are failing because of socialist policies, but others would say they are failing because of the right-wing economic rationalism and disaster economics. Overall, however, it is obvious that Putin is a success who deserves world admiration but who is, instead, the object of NATO jealousy, covetousness and spite.
