kowtow to Putin OR ELSE

10-30-19    Meanwhile, the repressive measures of the authorities have not only survived the demonstrations but have gained new impetus with the addition of more detainees. 
Against this almost theatrical backdrop stand the immense and far-reaching machinations of the FSB.  For weeks on end, there have come almost daily reports of how the agency has frozen all the bank accounts of yet another activist — and oftentimes that person’s relatives as well.  The same tactic is applied against journalists and business people who have expressed support publicly for opposition leader Alexei Navalny.  https://www.themoscowtimes.com/2019/10/30/how-putin-is-bankrupting-the-russian-opposition-a67971
