So, time's up. Nobody answered the question... The right answer is A. Because Yeltsin privatized everything state-owned to oligarchs close to him, and several families took over the Russian economy. Putin became such a popular politician at the time and won the love of the people. Yeltsin knows that elections are coming and if anyone from the opposition wins, they will investigate his deals with oligarchs. And he tells him, "Take power and do whatever you want with it, but don't deal with me and don't investigate me." On the last day of 1999, New Year's Eve, Yeltsin resigned as president of the Russian Federation and handed over power to Vladimir Putin.
As nobody answered this question, I will post my next one:
Who created the multinational news television CNN in 1980?
A: Elon Musk
B: Donald Trump
C: Ted Turner
D: Rupert Murdoch
Deadline: Friday, July 30th, 12:00 EET. The winnings are the same.
