Todays Tidbit of Russian Information… (9-28-2011)

Working under the Putin-Medvedev tandem, many representatives of Putin’s government did not regard the president as their boss, which was evident from Kudrin’s statement, experts said.

“There are quite a few people in the government who consider themselves as no less important than Medvedev,” New Economic School Assistant Principal Konstantin Sonin said. But other ministers will not oppose Medvedev without being instructed to do so, Vinogradov conjectured.

How true this information is and is what can happen when you have two equal in theory bosses…

But as they said, No one will oppose Medvedev now! It is just a little time and Medvedev is gone from President. Then we shall see what happens at that point…

RBC is a great news source by the way: http://www.rbcnews.com/ goes to the English version and they have a pretty good translation department that does a good job. Give them a try…
