Translation of the article by Evgenia Lyozina, 2021:
"After the collapse of the Soviet regime, in full harmony with Herling-Grudzinski's warning, there was a gradual restoration of political police structures, but democratization did not take place. It seems that these two facts are related.
Democratic transformation in Russia did not occur largely because state security structures, the backbone of Soviet communism and the most repressive institution, were not dismantled, and the employees of these structures involved in mass repression and human rights violations were not they were held accountable for their actions and retained the influence of their position.
Except for fairly limited rehabilitation, no other transitional justice measures have been implemented in Russia. The conditions for the revenge of the nomenklatura and for the revenge of the special services developed in the years of perestroika."
The Mafia Corporation which control the country until now:
"The XX Trust Corporation can be called the most successful Russian business project of the 20th century.

Among them: the president of the country, the first deputy prime minister of the government, the minister of finance, the director of the largest defense institute, the former head of a federal agency, etc."
