Putin 1952 was born in St. Petersburg, a typical red family. His father is a Soviet naval officer and his mother is a worker in the city. Therefore, from childhood, red education went deep into the bone marrow, so Putin devoted himself to serving the country when he grew up. He received a bachelor's degree in law, a master's degree in economics and a doctorate from Leningrad University.
After graduation, at the age of 23, he joined the mysterious intelligence agency KGB of the Soviet Union and became a special agent. Since then, Putin has been working in the Leningrad confidential bureau, and then he was sent to East Germany to engage in espionage and intelligence gathering. Many people have seen Putin's toughness and wisdom as president, so they always hope that if Putin can turn the tide when the Soviet Union collapses, then the Soviet Union will not collapse.
In fact, on the eve of the disintegration of the Soviet Union, Putin returned to China, when the whole Soviet Union was in chaos. Although most people don't want the Soviet Union to disintegrate, in the last referendum, more than 70% people wanted to keep the Soviet Union. But at that time, the upper rulers of the Soviet Union had made up their minds to disintegrate the Soviet Union, and the whole media propaganda and guidance revolved around the superiority of the western system.
Putin collected western intelligence in East Germany for a long time and naturally had a deep understanding of the nature of the West. At that time, he resolutely opposed the disintegration of the Soviet Union. However, after seeing the failure of the August 13th incident, the entire KGB top management was cleaned up. Putin saw that the general trend was gone. For Putin, who was less than 40 years old at that time, his status was too low and his power was too small to do anything at all!
In addition, Yeltsin, who was the first to disintegrate at that time, and other presidents of the Republic of China were all real power figures who mastered the army and main power. They are bent on disintegration. At this time, if Putin directly opposes it, it is tantamount to throwing eggs at stones and bringing about self-destruction. Putin sees this very clearly. Therefore, although Putin wants to turn the tide and save the disintegration of the Soviet Union, he can only recognize the situation and leave the KGB organization quickly.
Moreover, together with his own teacher, after the disintegration of the Soviet Union, he directly became a Russian official, the teacher became the mayor of St. Petersburg, and Putin became the right-hand man, thus opening the political process. This paved the way for him to become Russian Prime Minister and President in the future. Because Putin has been working hard since he entered politics, it is even more painful to see the chaos and weakness of the country after the disintegration of the Soviet Union.
Therefore, Putin has an urgent desire to make the country strong and restore the prosperity of the Soviet Union. Nine years later, when President Putin, then 48, came to power, he said, which is also a famous saying in the world, that is, "Give me 20 years and give you back a powerful Russia", which reflected his desire to restore the strength of the Soviet Union.
So he said, "Whoever doesn't feel sorry for the disintegration of the Soviet Union has no conscience", from which we can see Putin's deep feelings and support for the Soviet Union. But one of Putin's greatest benefits is to focus on the present, because the Soviet Union can't go back. What can be done is to make Russia strong, otherwise there is no other way, so Putin is the greatest president in the world, and there is no one.
