I did not master the pages of the article by Prokhanov, entitled: "Putin has a great cleaning of the trash pit into which the world has turned." The title accurately reflects as the Russian elite, political and economic, sees the world. They also saw the late USSR, its property, which then privatized. "A large landfill in which a lot of gold is buried."

In the 90s, they raked this "Soviet golden (or oil, or aluminum ...) landfill." Using the pressure of bureaucratic intrigues and gangster roofs. Under the early Putin, the smartest of them took possession of a decent English, dressed a tailcoat and wanted to grow into a world economy, take a worthy place in it.

They were not accepted. They were sold yachts, houses and football teams, but the development of the world economy world life and closed clubs (real or imaginary) went in addition to Russian rich.
It became very offensive to them.

“We, Russia - got up from the knees, and they do not recognize us,” hundreds or thousands of billionaires of Russia thought about this. "Well then, they will see who we are that we can."

And they know how to capture enterprises, create roofs and wage hybrid wars. What was privatization in Russia, if not a hybrid war against the economy? Let us recall at least collateral auctions: propaganda campaigns and bureaucratic intrigues visible to everyone, coexistered with power methods against competitors.

Since 2014, they have already been working little in world politics. Starting with Ukraine. Of course, they do not want a big war. They do not need it, they are reasonable in their own way. They want a greater share in the "world garbage dump" and strive for it by the methods of the 90s, in which they became champions. This is what they call "Russia got up from the knees."

Hybrid, or in the spirit of time, binary conflicts - this is the element of their past success, they are sure - and the future.

And we, citizens of Russia? For them, we are an important trump card in these conflicts. Something like a living shield. Strelkov, who opened military operations in the Donbass, once spoke about a clash with Ukrainian detachments in the spring of 2014: "And then we went to residential areas where they could no longer shoot at us ...". He considered residential areas as an important strategic advantage.

The Russian electorate is an important strategic advantage of Russian billionaires.
