Putin?s Last Realm to Conquer: Russian Culture

[Alexandra Smith]

Dear colleagues,

There is a curious article on Putin and Russian culture included in  
New York Times yesterday. ("Putin?s Last Realm to Conquer: Russian  
Culture"); see:
http://www.nytimes.com/2007/12/01/arts/01abroad.html?_r=1&hp=&oref=slogin&pagewanted=all
It talks a bit about Nikita Mikhalkov as promoter of Putin and  
includes a few  of  Marat Guelman's comments...

All best,
Alexandra
