APPLEBAUM: Putin presented a fake image of Russia to the world. He talks about himself as leader of traditional society.
In fact, divorce rates are very high in Russia, abortion is very common, very few Russians go to church, and less than 5% of Russians have ever read a Bible.
So it's not an especially religious or traditional culture, but Putin has made himself the face of that idea because it's politically advantageous.
He uses it both to build support, to court, and to win over sympathizers in the West, and maybe he uses it at home as well.
It looks a little bit like how in the 1930s Soviet communists also sold a vision of the Soviet Union to Americans and Europeans about how marvelous it was and how they had discovered a new kind of political system.
If you've never been to Russia, Russia is a large country, it's far away, so you can imagine a lot of things about it. You can create a kind of imaginary Russia, an imaginary Soviet Union.
Especially if you only visit Moscow and St. Petersburg, like most tourists do. But most of the people who admire Russia haven't even been to Moscow and St. Petersburg.
It's very similar today. You have a part of European right and American right who have this imaginary Russia that they use as a symbol, without understanding that it has no relationship to reality.

@ED_CKTH @KyivPost Oh, really? Somehow, when Ukraine was much stronger, they were in favor of its accession to the EU.
