Fox News reports: This documentary is a deep dive into the person who has dominated Russian politics since 2000. Brian Kilmeade and his panel of experts examine his background, his mindset, and his vision all to answer the question, Who is Vladimir Putin? He is the current president of Russia who has served for 17 non-consecutive years, was born in what is now-Saint Petersburg in 1952. 

Putin idolized the Soviet security agency, KGB, in his youth. He was recruited after earning a law degree from Leningrad University. While stationed in East Germany, a crowd surrounded the KGB building during the revolutions of 1989. Putin called for reinforcements, to no avail.  What really, really frightened Putin is that he could not get Moscow on the line, U.S. Intelligence Expert Rebekah Koffler said in the special. From that point on, he decided that Russia will never be weak again. 

After the Soviet Union’s collapse, he worked for the then-mayor of Saint Petersburg until 1996. Two years later, former Russian President Boris Yeltsin appointed him to be director of the main successor organization to the KGB. In 1999, Putin became prime minister and Yeltsin’s intended successor, despite having little political experience. Yeltsin identifies him as someone who he thinks is good at his job, sort of carries out what he’s supposed to do without much fuss, professor Brian Taylor said.

Despite being originally unknown and unpopular, he won the 2000 popular vote after apartment bombings were attributed to Chechen terrorists. Putin resonated with the Russian people by declaring the Second Chechen War.  While everyone in the West was expecting Russia to become a democracy, was expecting to reap the proverbial peace dividend, that was never in the cards, Koffler said.
