OPINION POLLS

NEWOnly one out of 300 Russian students polled wants to become a businessperson, according to Russian Business Ombudsman Boris Titov. The rest would prefer leading a “safe and stable” life as a government employee. Why do you think the Russian youth shuns risk-taking and seeks the quiet of a salaried office position with little responsibility?
