I mean, this power has seen ironically russia passed the card internationally start to collapse on itself. So many sanctions as well as russia being pulled at the 2018 games. Domestically, putin has continued to crack down and continue to act in a demagogue way towards the russian people and i think its definitely very worrying because even though russia has certainly been very act it this past year from supporting the far right parties in europe to our own country as well as military effort and i think despite the backlash, putin certainly is continuing to be untrue see a lot of lives in russian people and its attire a situation in regards to that.
