Oct 14, 2006 - Pyatigorsk, Stavropol Krai, Russian Federation - The Lermontov Gallery and Museum in Pyatigorsk, Russia. The city on the Podkumok River in the Southern Federal District of Russia was founded in 1780, and has been a health spa with mineral springs since 1803. In recent years the North Caucasus region of Russia has suffered because of its proximity to the Chechen conflict, while the whole of Russia has struggled to come to terms with the transition to a free market economy since the fall of the Soviet Union in 1991. As Vladimir Putin winds down his second and final term as president of Russia he has hinted at taking on the role of prime minister, confirming the belief of many that he is unkeen to relinquish power. Regardless of the outcome it is safe bet to assume that the vast majority of people will continue to struggle as salaries and pensions remain low, and corruption continues to eat away at every level of life in Russia.
