NOT MONEY, BUT LIVES: THE REAL COST OF THE YUKOS CASE


Details 06 March 2020 Leonid Nevzlin


A Dutch appeals court has recently overturned the annulment of a $50 billion
award to shareholders in the Yukos oil company. This decision reinstates the
2014 ruling of the Permanent Court of Arbitration and overturns the 2016
decision of the Hague District Court. Hailing to the rule of law, former Yukos
top-manager, Israel-based businessman and IMR trustee Leonid Nevzlin points out
that the Yukos case should not be measured in money.

HOW REGIONAL AND LOCAL GOVERNMENTS BECAME A PROBLEM FOR PUTIN


Details 28 February 2020 András Tóth-Czifra

One of the underreported stories in Russian politics is the growing tensions
between the federal government in Moscow and the regions. Increasingly
centralized revenues and political authority along with undue preferences given
to Moscow have sparked regional crises, signaling the problem to Vladimir Putin
directly. It appears that he will try to solve this problem by codifying
bottom-up accountability, instead of strengthening local governance. That’s a
mistake.

FEBRUARY-2020: NETWORK, HIZB UT-TAHRIR, RASHID MAISIGOV


Details 29 February 2020 Institute of Modern Russia

In January, IMR launched a new human rights project—a monthly digest dedicated
to serious human rights violations in Russia. Many of these incidents take place
in the regions and rarely end up in the national media in Russia, let alone in
the West. Our goal is to bridge this gap.


ANALYSIS


WHAT HAPPENS WITH RUSSIA’S CONSTITUTIONAL REFORM

Details 23 February 2020 Institute of Modern Russia

Preparations for constitutional reform in Russia are being rolled out at an
unprecedented pace. On January 15, Vladimir Putin proposed to amend the
country’s Basic Law, and already on January 23, the corresponding draft law was
passed by the State Duma in the first reading. A national vote on the issue is
expected to take place on April 22. For those who can’t keep up with these rapid
developments, IMR has compiled a brief timeline with selected commentaries by
leading Russian legal experts.


HOW RUSSIA, POLAND, AND UKRAINE TRY TO REVISE WWII HISTORY

Details 18 February 2020 Dmitry Shlapentokh

This year marks the 75th anniversary of the end of World War II—the war that has
largely shaped the modern world order. As countries prepare to celebrate another
year of peace in Europe, it is clear that unresolved political rifts, old and
new, are pushing some leaders to revise the history of the war for their own
political gains.


PUTIN’S MATERNAL CAPITAL WILL NOT FIX RUSSIA’S DEMOGRAPHIC PROBLEM

Details 12 February 2020 Anna Williams

Along with a series of sweeping constitutional reforms, Vladimir Putin also
announced a host of changes to socio-economic programs during the State of the
Nation address on January 15. In addition to indexing pensions and ensuring that
the minimum wage remains above subsistence levels, the government prolonged and
enlarged the maternity capital program.

VLADIMIR GELMAN: “AN INTENTION TO PRESERVE THE POLITICAL STATUS QUO AND PUTIN’S
AUTHORITY IS SEEN IN THE CONSTITUTIONAL REFORM”

Details 27 February 2020 Olga Khvostunova

In an interview with IMR, political scientist Vladimir Gelman, professor of the
European University in St. Petersburg and the University of Helsinki, discusses
the origins of Russia’s bad governance, the goals of Vladimir Putin’s recent
political initiatives, and the Western elite’s “jealousy.”


THE RESULT OF 20 YEARS OF PUTIN: RUSSIA AS A MAFIA STATE

Details 24 January 2020 Leonid Nevzlin

Over the last week, Russia has gone through a political upheaval initiated by
Vladimir Putin: proposal for constitutional reform, resignation of the
government, appointment of a new cabinet. The pace and scale of these events led
some commentators to call them a “constitutional coup.” However, if one is to
follow the logic of the regime, the president’s latest decisions should not come
as a surprise. As IMR trustee, businessman, and philanthropist Leonid Nevzlin
points out in his analysis of Putin’s 20 years in power, the result of his rule
is the transformation of Russia into a mafia state.


RUSSIA FACES CHANGE, BUT PUTIN ISN’T GOING ANYWHERE

Details 17 January 2020 Yana Gorokhovskaia

In his January 15 address to Russia’s Federal Assembly, Vladimir Putin revealed
large-scale plans for constitutional reform, essentially for the transit of
power beyond 2024, when his current, fourth (de-facto fifth) term is set to
expire. Hours after Putin’s speech, the Russian government resigned and the name
of a new prime minister was announced. Many of the fundamentals of this power
overhaul still remain unknown, but there might be reason to be optimistic in the
long run.
