On July 10, 1991, Boris Yeltsin took office as President of Russia. While frequently hailed by Western leaders during his presidency and after his death as a liberal, reformist democrat, for a majority of Russians, his eight and half year presidency was an age of adversity and despair.Great for the oligarchs and Russian mafia though. Western advisors: "Let the free market sort it out."

People died and others committed suicide. Most loft their pensions, stuff like that. It was a disaster while the Chicago School advisers made out. The university lecturers were a bunch of crooks along with the Russian oligarchs. The oligarchs were gangsters with drive shootings. The West hoorays them as free market reformers, but they are professional criminals. They are still killing each other today, plutonium and things, but Putin gets the blame.
