Who Is Mr Putin A Hero

In the 1980’s Americans at home and millions of Russians living in the Soviet Union said U.S. President Ronald Reagan was a great communicator because he was the first to openly say the Soviet Union was an “evil empire” that must be defeated. However, in today’s Russia, a high percent of Russians regret the Soviet Union collapse which was so relentlessly pursued by the United States. Mr. Putin has called the empire’s break-up “A national tragedy of enormous scale.” This conflict made Mr. Reagan’s Presidency controversial, some saw him as a hero while others saw him as a zealot wanting all the power. People can be seen as a hero to some and a villain to others because of their actions and how they are perceived.
