The millions of consumers exercising their right to choose in the rapidly growing supermarket chains; the planeloads of business travelers converging on London, Zurich, and Frankfurt daily; the holiday-makers who, having lost the Crimea, have rediscovered the Mediterranean – all are part of a Russia beyond Putin’s Russia, one that will grow and develop even when Putin is history.
数百万消费者在迅速发展的超级连锁市场行使选择的权利；满载商务旅行者的飞机每日聚集在伦敦、苏黎世和法兰克福；度假者丧失了克里米亚半岛，却重新发现了地中海—所有这一切都超越了普京的统治，即便普京成为历史，俄罗斯的这一部分仍然要发展和进步。
