December 1979 cold war ended. Now East and West Germany was about to united. In East Germany Protesters of Germany surrounded local headquarter of KGB (Russian secret agency). Then one of the Russian Soldier called for help to Moscow. But he was stun, when he was replied by the answer that first we need to asked, “And Moscow is still silent”. He put out his gun and warned those protesters if you guys won’t step back, then in that case I will start firing on you.  His warning worked, and he managed to save himself and his companions. Now he is a Moscow. Not even a single event took place without his permission and this young Soldier was Vladimir Putin.

Now Putin is President of Russia. And his way of living is too expensive. But he was not always rich. He used to live in a very small house with his family. In his house they did not have any bathroom. They were struggling at that time. His father was a servant in Navy and his mother was factory labor. Big and strong boys in his block used to beat him. Then in reaction of this anger he killed lot of mouse in his house. In ordered to teach them lesson, he practiced Judo. And beat each and single one of them.

In his early fights he realized that world bow in front of strong one. So often he used to say that “If there is no other way except to fight then be hurry to hit first”.

That is the main reason super power like USA also seek peace from Russia. His Journey of life was not so simple. He faced too many hardships on his way to be a great leader. Putin when get conscious about society, then Russia was not just Russia. But it was Soviet Russia. And many western European countries was under the command of Russia. He did his degree of Law. But there was lot more respect for KGB instead of any other department. KGB was the only agency who was standing in front American intelligence agency CIA.

KGB was so powerful that some big name of Russia also afraid of this intelligence agency. Putin did not waste his time in practicing this degree. He joined KGB. Behind his wish to join KGB also had weird story. In his teen age he saw Russian film which based on secret Mission of Russian Soldier in World war II. He was impressed by the fact of secret agent that, How one man can play role in the lives of Million Humans?

Putin was really excited on his selection in KGB. He did party in a restaurant. His main part of the job was to keep eye on Foreigners, demolishing the opposition and he was the part of counter intelligence also. He posted to East Germany. After World War II Russia and USA occupied Germany by dividing its area. East Germany was in control of Russia and West Germany made alliance with USA. Until Berlin was also divide in East and West Germany.

Now East and West Germany was the playground of KGB and CIA. In this ground Putin spend five year. He learnt a lot from this situation. Putin was acting as a translator in East Germany. He kept his work very secret. So that original information about his worked never leaked or known. But some Experts had their opinion that he used to recruit visitors of East Germany in KGB, and also he recruit German officers of East in KGB.

Also some had opinion that role of Putin in East Germany was not so big, He was there for righting reports and attend meetings. Putin had big role in KGB or not it does not matter, but KGB made him mystery man. And till now he is a mystery man. There in East Germany he learnt that People in East Germany are more happy and free as compared to Soviet Russia. Because in Russia on that time on the name of Communism people were getting robbed and killed. There he realized Russia is moving in wrong direction. And he started to discuss this difference with his other Soldiers friends.

New Intelligence agency of Russia FSB | Vladimir Putin and President Boris Yeltsin



In 1989 Russia evacuate Afghanistan. After this evacuation People started protesting against Russia in Central Asia and Western Europe. This was the time when Putin realized street power. Also he learnt, how to take the advantage of street power? In 1989 wall of Berlin collapse, Whole Germany unite as wall of Berlin collapse. And now concept of East and West Germany ended. In 1990 Putin went back to Russia, there he was the advisory of his town (Saint Peters-burg) Mayor. In this position he took some decision which resulted in big scandal for him.

“Putin issued license of export to Western Europe in exchange of raw material”. Then criminal investigation took Place, and local member of council forced mayor to removed Putin from his post but Mr. Sobchak whom Putin was very close refused to dismiss him. And he remained on his post of advisory.

In 1991 another incident took place which changed the whole structure of Russia. Rebellion took place against president of Russia Gorbachev. This rebellion got fail. KGB was also include in this Rebellion. Due to this Putin resigned from KGB.
Now Putin was focusing on his political career. Due to the training of KGB and spending time in Germany. He became so clever that he took great advantage from these movements against Soviet Government.

He was very well aware that now it’s a time for revolution of Soviet Russia into Russia. And he knew that for him there is lot of opportunities up there. He made a strong bond with upper grade officers of Russia while he was in East Germany. And he was well aware that this bond of friendship would help him a lot. 

In 1996 while Putin was in Moscow, he took great advantage of his friendships that he made in his career of KGB. Soon Russian President Boris Yeltsin met him, and he was well aware about experience of Putin, President was impress by his qualities. So President made Putin head of Presidential staff. Now his Journey was just started.

For one more time Putin had become secret agent, because FSB was the new intelligence agency of Russia. And this agency was the replacement of KGB. Now President Boris was looking for best man for this job. So for president Putin was the best man for this job. Because Putin had lot of experience against CIA and other intelligence agencies. President Boris made Putin chief of FSB.

President Boris was really impress by Him. First he made Putin vice Prime Minister then Prime Minister. Now the only barrier on his way to be the President was President Boris. This Barrier was not strong enough, because Boris was addicted to drugs and he lost two big fights one was against Afghanistan and second one was against Chechnya (Muslim community). Due to these fight he lost his reputation in as a great leader of Russians.

Chechnya vs Russia | Guerrilla attack of Chechnya on Russia


In 1994 Russia attacked on Muslim community area Chechnya in the era of Boris Yeltsin. Just after two years Russia lost this fight. This made Russians really angry and Putin was also waiting for the moment in ordered to take revenge.

Then just after two year, incident took place in Dagestan (state of Russia), thousands of Muslim freedom fighters of Chechnya entered in Russian state Dagestan. They were there to assist their Muslim brothers for independence. Russian Military started operation against them and did lot of bombing. Russian air force did lot of air strikes on them. But Putin had different tactics to bow them down, he was interested in Military operation rather than Air strikes. So he was insisting on this tactic.

Then in November 1989 lot of bomb blast took place in Moscow and Dagestan. These all blast took place in a building of civilians and lot of Russian lost their lives during these bombing. Some experts of that time put blamed on the shoulder of Osama Bin Laden. But Putin gave official statement that Chechnya is behind this incident, which is why we have to attack on Chechnya. He was well aware, a leader can be successful in his career, if he speech like “attacking and destroying enemies”.

Some experts also had their opinion that these bomb blast took place on the order of Vladimir Putin. Why they have statements like this?

It is because when Putin was forcing to attack on Chechnya on the same day lot explosive product was found in Russian city Ryazan. Call was tape by the local telephone operator, which was from Ryazan to Moscow, according to this record call “That’s impossible to leave the city together without being caught” in reverse he replied “Then split up and tried, and leave the city”.

Telephone operator informed local police about this call. After investigation, it cleared that this call was from Ryazan to Moscow, and this was the number of FSB (Intelligence agency of Russia). Police traced this call and caught those men. They showed their ID card of FSB. But they did not tell the reason behind this call. Then on the order of Moscow Police let them go. This call had some bond with blast of Moscow and Dagestan no one knows.

On the other side Putin got success in his dream. He defeated Chechnya. Now for Russians he was a hero. Putin got enough fame to be the President of Russia. Boris Yeltsin was also tired. So he wanted to resign from his position.

31ST December 1999 Boris Yeltsin retired from presidential seat. And according to law Putin who was Prime Minister at time selected as Acting President of Russia. After being President he continued his war against Chechnya and within a month he occupied whole Chechnya. Which was the good news for Russians.

But forces of Chechnya started guerilla war against Russia so due to this many incident took place in Russia. October 2002 Chechnya Fighters attacked on theater of Russia in Moscow. And more than 700 civilians were the hostages of these attackers. Russian Military used sleeping gas and attacked on theater, in this operation more than 100 of civilians were killed with attackers.

After this Incident Putin was on his point of war against Chechnya, and just after two years another incident took place in Russia, this time Chechnya fighter attacked on a school and more than 1000 persons were kept as hostages, in this operation Russia lost more than 200 hundreds school kids and teacher. This was the one of the worse attack, to kill children and innocent is not a something to feel proud on it  

Role of Russia in the World | Power of Vladimir Putin



After these Incidents, People of Russia realized that we need a strong leader like Vladimir Putin, who can stand against those terrorist. But reality was different. These terrorists and bomb blasting was the result of Chechnya occupation. Russia occupied Chechnya. This was the natural result of occupation in any country, they were on suicide mission. Russia was facing terror attack by the soldiers of Chechnya, who were using the tactic of guerilla attack. It was really difficult situation to understand the facts, because Russians was really angry due to these attack on schools and Movie Theater, they lost their beloved ones. If Russia accept Chechnya as an independent state, than causalities could be minimized to negligible.

Vladimir Putin took great advantage of this conflict. He announced war against these terrorists. Due to this its vote bank multiplied ten times. At the end of this war Vladimir Putin was the hero. In 2000 election took place in Russia, Putin clearly won this election by impressive lead of 53 percent, he remained on his position of President. Just after 4 years in 2004 again Presidential election took place. Result was in the hand of Vladimir Putin for one more time. He remained on his position of President as a dictator for 8 years.

Now he was well aware that he is going to won this election of 2008 too, but problem was according to the constitution of Russia, man who elected as president for consecutive two times wasn’t allow to be the President for third time. So he used his impressive technique and become Prime Minister in the election of 2008. He made Dmitry Medvedev President of Russia. Dmitry was the one of the best friend of Vladimir Putin. This Technique worked, and he remained in power for consecutive 12 years. In 2012 election took place in Russia, and in these election Vladimir Putin got clear lead and become President of Russia for third time. This time he made some changes with article of Russia.

Vladimir Putin changed the duration of President from 4 years to 6 years. In 2018 election took place in Russia and in these elections Vladimir Putin won by clear lead and become president of Russia for fourth time.

Till now he completed its twenty year of duration as President of Russia. So what you think guys, what is the reason behind his power?

Putin was blame by using FSB for his own power. Many experts had their opinion that FSB had the same power that KGB had in Soviet Russia. In his era many leaders of opposition killed mysteriously.

But Vladimir Putin did his best to raised Russia as a super power of the World. In his Era Russia came up with new weapons and Missile technologies like S-400, S-500 and 5th generation fighter jets. Which are way faster and strong.

USA and Russia remained in front of each other in many battle fields. In 2008 Russia attacked on Georgia, Georgia had alliance with USA. In this Russia occupied most important areas of Georgia. Also In 2014 Russia attacked on Ukraine and occupied its area of Crimea without any conflict. Due to this attack tension raised between Russia and USA. USA put new sanction on Russia.

Which resulted in Putin boycott with each and any product of Western World. So Russians smashed all the food products of Western World. Putin also assisting Syrian President Bashar Al-Assad in war. Russian force entered in Syria in 2015 and within a 3 year, they changed the total result of War.
Russian may be the one of the strongest countries. But still super power is USA, this is because on many battle field Russia bow in front of USA, Like in Syria many Russian soldiers killed by air strikes of Israeli and American fighter jets. In Afghanistan USA forced Russia to evacuate this land.

Fact about Putin: "Western Media also declared Putin one of the richest person". Net worth of Putin is nearly 4 Billion $. He had many houses and luxury stuff which includes Cars, Yachts, and Helicopters etc. He is also very cool President. Due to his personality countries like USA have respect for Russia.  

Now take a look on economic growth of Russia. Russia had GDP of 195 Billion $ in 1999. Over last two decades Putin raised this GDP from 195 Billion $ to 1600 Billion $.  Which is quite brilliant number.

Till now Putin also practiced Judo for his fitness. And we called them one of the great and conserve President for Russia.

Vladimir Putin is one of those leader who had really strong grip on their political career. People of Russia have lot of respect for this man. Because he raised Russia as the best nation of the world. It is true that he is not going to share his power with someone else. But he is good for Russia.
