    I wouldn’t say the current regime is really left wing, unlike the USSR. Yeltsin really leaned into the “free market” stuff (with disastrous consequences), and while Putin may have added more elements of planning and protectionism compared to that, he isn’t and doesn’t claim to be any kind of socialist.
