Some more about Russia and Putin Instead of evolving into a Western-style democracy with a fully developed economy, Russia is acting more and more like a renegade economic power and bully. Becoming more authoritarian politically and more dependent on energy revenue economically, its actions are raising doubts about the country's commitment to free markets and capitalism and causing foreigners to question whether they should invest in Russian markets. ....................................... There are signs, during the past few days, that the honeymoon between President Dmitry Medvedev and Prime Minister Vladimir Putin may be fading. If Medvedev, a lawyer, emerges victorious, that should be a good omen for investors and corporate executives. By contrast, should Putin, the former president and ex-KGB colonel, win out, Western officials may have to read Russia the riot act. Russia's security service has raided TNK offices as part of a tax-evasion investigation, and foreign workers have been denied visas. bloomberg.com forbes.com nytimes.com
