| Abstract |
"Secretary of State Hillary Clinton "set the tone for some actors in our country and gave them a signal. They heard the signal and with the support of the U.S. State Department [they] began active work." Vladimir Putin made this claim following Russia's parliamentary elections in December 2011. Putin had recently announced his intention to return as president after a term as prime minister and was expecting a smooth transition. Instead, he was met by Russia's largest protests in years. Drawing out the implications of the challenge as he saw it, Putin concluded, "We are obligated to protect our sovereignty and we will have to think about strengthening the law and holding more responsible those who carry out the tasks of a foreign government to influence internal political processes" ("Putin obvinyaet" 2011)"-- Provided by publisher. |
