The Kremlin, for its part, has been at pains to improve its image abroad, hiring U.S. and British public-relations consultants to help. Yet the country has grown increasingly pugnacious, picking serial fights with Western powers. Putin has recently appeared to draw...
...visa restrictions or any impact on business," says Natasha Chouvaeva, the editor of Britain's Russian-language newspaper, the Russian London Courier. "Confrontation is not an option."
