He's just an incompetent bumbler whose surrounded by many yes-men. His central banker is pretty talented though. She has done a great job helping keeping the Russian economy from seizing up. But even she is now starting to getting backed into a corner from all the adverse economic circumstances that Russia faces and she recently alluded to this matter.
