A Slavic People A Russian Superpower A Charismatic World Leader The Global Upheaval Trilogy

By Goeran B Johansson

A trilogy about Russian President Vladimir Putin based on three previously published books from 2011 until 2016. The books clarify Putin's ongoing strategy to make Russia a global power again after the dissolution of the USSR in 1992.

The trilogy is illustrated with photos and pictures. It is based on articles by international experts and the author's own analyzes that deal with the issues in a global strategic perspective.

You can follow the development during the chaotic Yeltsin years with a much weakened Russia; further during the sixteen years when Vladimir Putin developed relations with China within BRICS as well as Shanghai Cooperation Organization; moreover through the Ukrainian Crisis; the downing of the Malaysia MH 17 airliner over Eastern Ukraine. The trilogy refers to the Syrian Civil War, ISIL; the situation around the South China Sea and the Philippines; last but not least in Sweden.

Right up until the drama of the presidential election in the United States, the reader can get a fairly impartial illumination of the greatest global and political-economic-military upheaval of our time.

It has subsequently been shown that the author predicts today's global situation in a surprisingly clear way.
