English term

most closely beholden them to him

English to Portuguese Other Other
When communism collapsed the world wondered what the new Russia would become. Traffic jams, restaurants, bars, all in striking contrast to the drabness of Soviet communism and serving a new and prosperous urban class. But behind the glitter lies still an ancient Russia where power rests in the hands of a single leader and those most closely beholden them to him.
