The closest thing to an ideology behind Putin's moves is Russian nationalism.
No, it is not. There is no "Russian nationalism" in Russian politics because there is no concept of "nation" in Russian politics. The wery term "nation", especially in the form of "Russian nation" is banned in political vocabulary - you'll not find it in any official document ever. There are some vague terms like "Russian people" or "Russians" in use, but it correspond more with ethnicity, not with nationality.
So, there are no ideology behind Putin's moves, only sheer lust for power.
