Why political atmosphere in Russia is changing?


Kimmo Huosionmaa

Vladimir Putin will continue as the president of Russia if he wants. But that state will change, because that will be the end of something that have stamped all Putin's presidential work. Putin has lost contact with young people, and if he plays a role as an elder and wiser man than another person, he will go far away from young people. People are getting older and they don't want to get back past. The Soviet Union collapsed in 1992 and after that was time of political and economic disaster when societies were unstable.

That caused the rise of Putin, and after drunk Boris Jeltsin, he was better than people could even thin for a ruler of that country. Bad social situation and chaotic nation society will help that kind of man to rise a leader for the country. Those are things what makes people want to get strong leaders, and that is, of course, bad for democracy. But when the situation of state will become calm people begin to want more ways to make the influence of highest level of political control. Putin's idea of his work was that he will put down open corruption and open criminal activities.


But there was silent corruption inside government. Russian laws are very authoritative and that's why the democratic surveillance of government is almost impossible. If newspaper men will write against Kremlin will they will get troubles. But as we see the glove of secret police will slip from society. Russia goes to democracy sooner or later, but we must understand that state ever been real democracy, and that's why bringing democracy to that country will take longer than other East European states.


The reason of changing a political atmosphere in Russia is that people's attitudes are changing. People who saw the Soviet Union are now about 40's and that means at younger people have found new interests than military service. In Putin's time, Russia has been at two wars which didn't go so good as Putin probably hopes. And before those actions against Georgia and Ukraine was Groznyi, what destroyed totally when Russian army attacked against that rebellious city.


Russian own artillery made more damages than any terrorist organization ever could make. And the same style begins in Syria. That's why some people think that Russian military is leaning only for nuclear weapons.  Truth is that wars what Putin began went very bad because his military couldn't neutralize any targets without causing massive damages to infrastructure. Putin rose very masculine militarism as a stamp of Russia, but I think that those special forces kickboxing and other aggressive training methods make those troops very unwanted service places for many young people.


They just want to go to the army and came back as normal servicemen around the world. And younger people don't even know what was the Soviet Union. Putin was born in 1952, and he is now 65. So he will be an old man. His career as the president of Russia will over sooner or later, and if some 18 years old young people look, Putin, he will look like the grandpa. And for them will sooner or later time to elect the younger man as the leader of Russia.

Chinese innovations and space lasers are interesting combinations.

(Image credit: Alejomiranda via Getty Images)" (Scpace.com, China's space station, Tiangong: A complete guide) Chinese are close to making nuclear-powered spacecraft.  Almost every day, we can read about Chinese technical advances. So are, the Chinese more innovative than Western people? Or is there some kind of difference in culture and morale between Western and Chinese societies? The Chinese superiority in hypersonic technology is one of the things that tells something about the Chinese way of making things.  In China, the mission means. And the only thing that means is mission. That means that things like budgets and safety orders are far different from Western standards. If some project serves the Chinese communist party and PLA (People's Liberation Army) that guarantees unlimited resources for those projects. Chinese authorities must not care about the public opinion.  If we th

Iron Dome is one of the most effective air defense systems.

The Iron Dome is a missile defense system whose missiles operate with highly sophisticated and effective artificial intelligence. The power of this missile defense base is in selective fire. The system calculates the incoming missile's trajectory. And it shoots only missiles that will hit the inhabited area. The system saves missiles and focuses defense on areas that mean something. The system shares the incoming missiles in, maybe two groups. Another is harmless and another is harmful.  Things like killer drones are also problematic because their trajectories are harder to calculate than ballistic missiles. The thing that makes drones dangerous is that they can make masks for ballistic missiles. And even if those drones are slow, all of them must be shot down.  The thing is that the cooperation between drone swarms and ballistic missiles is the next danger in conflict areas. In the film, you can see how drones make light images of the skies. The killer drones can also carry LED li

The innovative shield that protects OSIRIS-APEX can also protect the new hypersonic aircraft.

"NASA’s OSIRIS-APEX spacecraft successfully completed its closest solar pass, protected by innovative engineering solutions and showing improvements in onboard instruments.

The mission plan is to research the sun. And especially find things that can warn about solar storms. Solar storms are things that can danger satellites at the Earth orbiter. And the purpose of OSIRIS-APEX is to find the method of how to predict those solar storms. Another thing is that the OSIRIS-APEX tests the systems and materials that protect this probe against heat and plasma impacts.  The same technology. The researchers created for OSIRIS-APEX can used in the materials and structures. That protects satellites against nuclear explosions. That means this kind of system delivers information on how to prot
