To begin with, Putin did nothing. He had no idea how to react. But, finally, he was forced to come
to Murmansk to confront the angry families
in a closed meeting. What Putin then did to save himself was turn that anger away
from himself and towards the very people
who had put him in power. "The people who killed your sons,"
he told the families, "were the corrupt elites in Moscow, "the oligarchs who have all the
money and control all the media. "They are the ones
who are lying to you. "They are the ones who have
destroyed the Army and the Navy. "They are the ones who have stolen
everything "and have everyone in their pocket."
