Oligarchy In Russia – Alexei Navalny’s Telling Mistake — John Helmer

Should-read. A bit longish but essential in understanding the dynamic. Requires some familiarity with the situation for full appreciation, but even if one doesn't have that, it is still useful as an introduction. About much more than the Navalny affair.

The is not only about Navalny or even mostly about him. It is about how Russia works on the inside and where Russian politics is headed — toward the Stavka rather than a Western-like liberal regime. It's also about how all "democracies" are actually oligarchies (as Aristotle noted).
