Boris Yeltsin, arguably the worst European leader since WWII, dead at 76.

"In the course of the Yeltsin era, per capita income fell about 75 percent, and the nation's population fell by more than 2 million, due largely to the steep decline in public health."

And that doesn't even quantify the culture of corruption that Yeltsin fostered in Russia. Putin is still trying to clean up his mess.
