"The resurgence of Vladimir Putin as president of Russia ushers in a new era of power politics and diplomacy in Northeast Asia with implications that may not be good news for either the United States or China.
Campaigning against strong opposition from the educated, intellectual, often critical elite of Moscow, Putin appealed for mass support by raising suspicions about the US. He found it easy to get through to millions of voters beyond the capital with claims that the US was influencing elitists against him."
