A chilling & revelatory expose of the KGB’s renaissance, Putin’s rise to power, & how Russian black cash is subverting the world.
In Putin’s People, former Moscow correspondent & investigative journalist Catherine Belton reveals the untold story of how Vladimir Putin & his entourage of KGB men seized power in Russia & built a new league of oligarchs.
Through exclusive interviews with key inside players, Belton tells how Putin’s people conducted their relentless seizure of private companies, took over the economy, siphoned billions, blurred the lines between organised crime & political powers, shut down opponents, & then used their riches & power to extend influence in the West.
In a story that ranges from Moscow to London, Switzerland & Trump’s America, Putin’s People is a gripping & terrifying account of how hopes for the new Russia went astray, with stark consequences for its inhabitants &, increasingly, the world.
