"No, but Putin represents the same mentality. Which is what I said."

No he doesn't. For one, after Stalin, the Politburo didn't want a replay. So the USSR was more or less run by committee until Gorbachev.

Putin has a lot more control than that. Russia also is in a more key position than the USSR ever was. And Putin holds the reigns.
