Russian President Dmitry Medvedev stated in his video blog that the country is showing symptoms of political stagnation similar to that experienced in the Soviet era, which Medvedev believes is “equally damaging” to both the ruling party and the opposition. “If the opposition has no chance at all of winning fair elections, it deteriorates and becomes marginalized. If the ruling party never loses a single election, it just ‘bronzes over.’ Ultimately, it too deteriorates like any living organism that remains static,” Medvedev said.
