Story
In The Long Hangover, Shaun Walker provides new insight into contemporary Russia and its search for a new identity, telling the story through the country's troubled relationship with its Soviet past. Walker not only explains Vladimir Putin's goals and the government's official manipulations of history, but also focuses on ordinary Russians and their motivations. He charts how Putin raised victory in World War II to the status of a national founding myth in the search for a unifying force to heal a divided country, and shows how dangerous the ramifications of this have been.

Putin didn't do anything different from any western President! Stalin did transfer Russian people to gulag but English Empire United States too, sail the ship's come to Africa, hunt the people transported innocent Africans force them to work and kill them as they pleased! President Kennedy wanted Nuclear war back in 1962, or CCCR must to remove nuclear weapons from Cuba! Today Putin don't want NATO weapons in Ukraine! We are all same tragedy is even worse we Westerners claim democracy but doing same as dictatorship Russia!
