Supporters of Putin point to those days at the mayor's office as proof he is a true reformer at heart. But one of Putin's opponents in this presidential race, Grigory Yavlinsky, claims Putin is really a Soviet communist.

"Communism means that you are ready to pay whatever price for your own political goals," Yavlinsky says. "Communism means that you say one thing and do another. Communism means you are always lying. All those points are the main points of Putin's policies."

Putin's political career in St. Petersburg was linked to Sobchak's. When Sobchak lost his re-election campaign amid scandal in 1996, Putin resigned.
