Putin's Rise as Russia's Dictator

Summary: The three young Russian women of the punk band Pussy Riot were condemned to harsh prison terms, with the obvious involvement and approval of Vladimir Putin and the Russian Orthodox Church, even though the conduct of the band was not of a religious nature, but clearly a political protest. The Western world has unanimously condemned the punishment, but Vladimir Putin does not care. It is his goal, with the help of the Russian Orthodox Church, to establish an authoritarian dictatorship to suppress all opposition voices. As a consequence, the relationship between the Russia and Europe will deteriorate. The Bible predicts an outright war between these two power blocs in the near future.
