In December 2013, David Satter became the first American journalist to be expelled
from Russia since the Cold War. The Moscow Times said it was not surprising that he
was expelled, "it was surprising it took so long." Satter is known in Russia for having
written that the apartment bombings in 1999, which were blamed on Chechens and brought
Putin to power, were actually carried out by the Russian FSB security police. In this
book, Satter tells the story of the apartment bombings and how Boris Yeltsin presided
over the criminalization of Russia, why Vladimir Putin was chosen as his successor,
and how Putin has suppressed all opposition while retaining the appearance of a pluralist
state. As the threat represented by Russia becomes increasingly clear, Satter's description
of where Russia is and how it got there will be of vital interest to anyone concerned
about the dangers facing the world today
