There was a substantial amount of aid and loans that was given; I can't remember the exact quote, but I remember that one article or paper had said that it was often being compared to a second Marshall plan during the 1990s.
To express how pumping a huge amount of money into a country lacking in market institutions, with unstable political structures, an elite which has managed to loot the proceeds of their economic base for themselves, and which is lacking in the rule of laws and a host of vital assets that are simply missing despite their vital nature in Western countries will go, the second portion of the following quote will shed light on this situation;
An African dictator paid a visit to an Asian dictator in his home country. He noted the lavish private airport, the richly planted gardens surrounding the official palace, and the fabulously expensive furnishings of the official residence. Knowing that this country was as poor as his own, he asked the Asian dictator "However could you afford such things"? The Asian dictator smiled, and pointed out the window to the new bridge being built with funds from international aid agencies. "You see that bridge?" he asked. He then smiled, tapped his finger on his chest, and said "Ten percent. Did you see that new dam being built on the river?" Again, he smiled, tapped himself on the chest, and said "Ten percent. You see, that is how I can afford such things". Now the African dictator was smiling too, and thanked the Asian dictator for the valuable lesson.
A couple of years later, the Asian dictator visited the African dictator in his country. He noted the airport was even more lavish than his own, the gardens even more lush, and the official palace even more palatial. Astounded at the African dictator's sudden wealth, he asked "However could you afford all this?". The African dictator pointed out the window. "You see that new bridge being built?". The Asian dictator scanned from horizon to horizon, and said "But I don't see any bridge!". The African dictator smiled, thumped himself on the chest, and said "One HUNDRED per cent!"
Russia seems to be the eternal example of that if it functions properly, no amount of foreign help is necessary, and if it doesn't, then no amount of foreign help is going to fix things. The Marshall plan worked in Europe because it had a base of market institutions (re)build on; Russia did not, which means that for a Marshall Plan type project its just a gaping hole for money to vanish into, and into oligarch's pockets. I'm sure there was some corruption in the Marshall Plan, but its the 10% style of corruption, a bit into the pockets but the project gets done; in Russia the money is going to vanish to no usage, whether it is in formal corruption or just a complete inability to properly allocate the money outside of a communist context when there is no market context. Ultimately, building up institutions for the market economy will be immeasurably more useful than a Second Marshall Plan; Russia. would have been far better served if the IMF stopped giving it so much "help" in the way of their suggestions and guidance, than by any conceivable amount of Western financial assistance.
