Mikhail Gorbachev (March 11, 1985 — December 25, 1991)
Boris Yeltsin (July 10, 1991 — December 31, 1999)
Vladimir Putin (May 7, 2000 — May 7, 2008)
Dmitry Medvedev (May 7, 2008 — May 7, 2012)
Vladimir Putin (May 7, 2012 —May 26, 2022)

Well, Gorbachev wasn't bad, considering those who came before him.

Yeltsin was the best ever Russian President. It seems that for those few years, Russia had a democracy. Certainly closer than ever before or after. Why on Earth did he ever hand the country over to Putin?

I don't remember much about Medvedev.

But we all know that Putin cares about no one other than himself. He is ruthless. He thinks nothing of killing his opponents, or civilians, women, and children in Ukraine.

Two possible names to replace him:

Alexei Navalny

Volodymyr Zelensky
