‘Putin’s GULAG More Horrible than Stalin’s,’ Researchers Say


Paul Goble

            Staunton, May 7 – Many people of good will around the world have been horrified by the case of Rizvan Ibragimov who has been subject to electro-shocks and other forms of torture for writing a history of Chechnya challenging the version approved by Ramzan Kadyrov, but they have dismissed such crimes as “Chechnya specific” (kavkaz-uzel.eu/articles/302255/).

My main reason for being against the current Russian regime is that the common people live a harsh life; not only that, small businessmen, self-employed, these are the kinds of people that are ending up being tossed in jail, per say, not paying a tax, license fee or something of that nature. And yes, many are in jail on trumped up charges, perhaps a bit like what is going on in Turkey.

Not sure if it is worse than Stalin's though.
