RE: Russian Reputation

[ferrido5]

Russia ranked 154th out of 178 countries in a corruption perceptions index released by Transparency International last year.
IMHO it's very conservative mark. Corruption is so deep in their blood that it has become a norm for the whole society. I will never again invest even 1 penny in the company, contaminated by the russian present. Having said that there are a lot of honest  russian people who still have their dignity and hate this situation as well. But the problem is when people like Putin remain in place, their servants like Mordashov would do everything to please their masters. "Steal as much as you can", that's their logo. And don't forget to share your "profit" with the right folks in order to satisfy your boss sitting in the Kremlin. Otherwise you will repeat the fate of Mr. Khodorkovsky, who is currently in jail, because he openly dared to challenge Putin's regime. But Mordashov is a good puppy. He will never do anything that might annoy his superiors. Best wishes to all. Former Russian citizen.
