Faced with a difficult and complex situation, Putin managed the troubled times with an iron fist after taking power. His performance was impressive, he won the support of the people, and his reputation was at its peak. Many Russians compare Putin to Peter the Great. A Russian opinion poll showed that among all the national leaders in the past 100 years, Putin scored the highest in three categories: personal charisma, respectability, and ease of approachability, making him the most popular president. To the surprise of Western observers and the domestic opposition, Putin’s popularity among the population appears to be unaffected by external forces. Although the “Kursk” nuclear submarine was buried at the bottom of the sea, the media criticized Putin one after another; 128 hostages died in the “Moscow Hostage Incident”, but Putin was still re-elected as president without any doubt with more than 70% of the vote. Even in 2004, when terrorist activities were raging, the Russian people did not complain too much about the government or Putin. Even when so many innocent lives were lost in the “Beslan Hostage Incident”, public opinion did not rally against Putin. On the contrary, the public has more understanding and support for Putin’s tough stance in countering terrorist activities. The Chechen terrorist forces are trying to make the Russian people panic and panic through successive terrorist attacks, thereby forcing the government to change its ways and compromise with the terrorist forces. However, the dreams of terrorist forces are unlikely to come true. The severe security situation has made the Russian people share the same hatred and unite more closely around Putin to support strong leaders like Putin in maintaining the stability of the country. Why has Putin always been welcomed by the Russian people and become a powerful political leader who is loved by the people? This is exactly the question that the author strives to seriously think about and answer by analyzing the politics, economy, military, diplomacy, etc. of the Putin era. 2007 is the Year of China in Russia. If our insights can provide useful help to people who care about Russia and want to understand Russia and broaden their horizons, we will be happy.
