Putin’s regime hits its top executives

Last Updated on March 11, 2024 by Epo

Our cartoonist Epo alludes to the arrest, at the end of June, of the brilliant liberal economist Vladimir Maou, rector of the Academy of National Economy and of the State Service to the Russian President. The reason for this arrest? A hazy accusation of fraud. This is probably a warning to the few liberals who still keep the Russian economy going.
