Law in Russia is not about words on paper but personalities on high

The truest words I have ever read about the Russian legal system today come from the article linked below:
"Russia’s legal system is not a guidebook that defines the rules of the game for all of the players, but a large club with which the government silently threatens everyone, coercing companies to ask what is permitted in order to avoid getting hit. This approach is effective because it is flexible, allowing leaders to change how the law is implemented any time they want."
