As I remember the mission was to appoint a new leader that the Russian people would accept.
It was said that they admired a leader who was strong, unyielding, unchanging, uncompromising, predictable because of sticking to the party line, patriotic and it was said that Putin fitted the bill.
Yeltsin was seen as a bit of a fool because of his drinking and escapades whilst under the influence.

It's not the least charm of a theory that it is refutable. The hundred-times-refuted theory of "free will" owes its persistence to this charm alone; some one is always appearing who feels himself strong enough to refute it - Friedrich Nietzsche
