Putin is at the center of this episode of “Russia's Wars“, which highlights the profound impact his rule has had on Russia. Beginning with Putin's decision in 2000 to reintroduce the Soviet national anthem, a powerful symbol of the link between Russia's past and present is set. The collapse of the Soviet Union and the subsequent turbulent years for Russia under Putin's rule are examined in detail, including the declarations of independence by the Baltic states and the dramatic political changes in Russia. The focus is on the military and political upheavals that shaped Russia and on personalities such as Putin, Gorbachev and Yeltsin. Putin's rise to power, from his beginnings as a KGB officer to his appointment as President of Russia, is meticulously traced. The intrigues and power games within the Kremlin and the role of the FSB under Putin's leadership are highlighted. The invasion of Georgia in 2008 and the annexation of Crimea in 2014 mark decisive moments for Russia. These events are analyzed in the context of NATO's eastward expansion and the geopolitical tensions between Russia and the West. Putin's use of military strength to secure and expand Russia's influence becomes clear. The modernization of the Russian armed forces and the introduction of new warfare strategies such as cyber warfare show how Russia has expanded its military capabilities under Putin. The influence of the Russian Orthodox Church and Patriarch Kirill on Putin's policies is also explored. This episode offers a deep insight into Putin's strategies and ambitions and shows how he is positioning Russia as a superpower.
