Ever since the breakup of USSR, Russian authorities proven its inability to function in a democratic manner. Murders, extortion, convoluted assets trasfers/sales, depletion of natural resources...... Now, ex KGB, pretending to be civilized, appointed by his handler, little dictator proves one more time that Russia (its government, not nessesary its people) have a looooooooooong way to go, before, if ever, it is to become a true and reliable member of civilized world. I did have an investment, now appers to be just a gambling bet, in Yukos. And would not hold my breath for any just compensation from Russian government. They have other obligations; their cronies, their manaical determination of prooving its greatness and power and most of all, protecting its own power base and positions, just like the stalins, chruchevs and breznevs before them.
