It’s pretty local in the sense of this is just the appointment of a mayor of Moscow, but Moscow is one of the biggest cities in Europe and it’s got massive budget, billions of dollars, so the person who occupies this post has some degree of power, but it’s also being something a long-going saga 1 which gives us an insight into the way Russian politics is working these days.

He seems very much as somebody who’s a loyalist to Vladimir Putin-Russia’s Prime Minister, it’s an indication that the Kremlin and Vladimir Putin as well, is tightening 4 its grip over this very important city in Russia and all its resources that contain within it, so it seems to be again: The Kremlin tighten 3 its grip over the political situation in Russia.
