Putin signs decree allowing state seizure of businesses hit by drone strikes

I will make a note to unpack my smallest violin to play for the oligarchs whose assets are seized.

I know the subtext is- "Putin bad!"

10 years of Trump the Ubiquitous and- "Putin bad!" have made a long 10 years.

I know this is a legitimate news story but Russia didn't practice "capitalism," either before the break up of the USSR, or after.
