    "You cannot be a Stalin without an oppression regime large enough to act," Bugayova told Fox News Digital. "He’s still very strong, but this is the first time I think there will be a challenge there to act on his increasingly authoritarian agenda."
    do we think he's got that?

    One would think so. Wasn't that the original purpose of RFE?

    What I wonder about is the medium. Is it still on AM/FM analogue radios? If so, how many people do you suppose still have one? I would think using digital/internet would be too dangerous.

    @Abouttime is more knowledgeable on comm and comm gear than I.
