A colleague and friend of the late Boris Nemtsov commented on radio today that Vladimir Putin will allow no 'bad boys' in his coterie. He went on to say that Putin surrounds himself with 'yes men', who become powerful.
According to the colleague, no disagreement, no different opinions are tolerated.
Interesting and an interesting lesson for all to hear.
