PUTIN’S PEOPLE Paperback

Catherine Belton's "Putin's People: How the KGB Took Back Russia and Then Took On the West" is a groundbreaking investigative exposé revealing the chilling story of Vladimir Putin's rise to power and how a network of former KGB operatives systematically seized control of Russia's economy and political system. Through extensive research and exclusive interviews, Belton meticulously details how these individuals amassed vast wealth, blurring the lines between organized crime and state power, and subsequently leveraged their riches and influence to extend the Kremlin's reach far beyond Russia's borders, with profound and often disturbing consequences for Western democracies and global stability.
