his speech marked the end of the soviet union. wattsey. yep. okay, diane sawyer. awesome. he was list. my dear sylvia, i was washoe more than it is you live dora july. he alone in samo bogo in the span of just a few minutes. the soviet empire had become history and with it the communist eastern block, which had split postwar european to the red army long, revered for its victory over hitler's germany was also relegated to the history books by summer, 1945 world war 2 in europe had finally drawn to a close, packed into crowded trains, nearly 9000000 soviets, soldiers were heading home one was anatoly, given a toulon we would children of 17 or 18 when we went to war with no memory of her 1st love that might have sustained us in that nightmare we were denied the care for a years of youth of young adulthood. we all returned from the war as cripples. the red army had emerged victorious from the great patriotic wool. the returning soldiers believed they would be greeted as heroes. but in a country that had been laid waste by war and 25000000 people had been left homeless, their

anna and alexandra and so your version of ivan demidov the soviet union lasted a little longer than i could imagine in your version. well, okaylyudmila in the soviet union is good. the union of soviet yes, igor kirillov is accepted . all is well. yes? igor kirillov ivan demidov is wonderful, but it's just clearly absolutely what it is hmm late eighties early nineties early television. well, maybe a little earlier, the beginning of his television career, that is, the soviet union or or already his? no? ok then. let's check. you never know you never know, and what other versions did you have? yes, a wonderful version. yes, of course, very good. good night, little aunts. and what other versions did you have, besides demidation? yes, not yet. i am surnames. to be honest, i remember my face, my last name, and in general i remember here. see see how come on let's like it here from the middle, well, indeed the man is a legend, and now he pleases us with appearances on television. never drozdov third line. well, of course, well, in general, all the stories of animals of such a late soviet union and etc. then for a long time, just nev

yes, okay, nonsense, some cold war is over. and the soviet union is destroyed.have peace friendship gum and so on. it turned out that no, it turned out that the cold war didn't go anywhere. it turned out that it was all an illusion. and if we start to analyze, we will remember that even the best years of our relations with the west, the 1990s, are big quotation marks for militants.

yes, okay, nonsense, some cold war is over. and the soviet union is destroyed. we now have peace friendship gum and so on. it turned out not. it turned out that the cold war was not going anywhere. it turned out that it was all an illusion. and if we start to analyze, we will remember that even the best years of our relations with the west, the nineties, are big quotation marks, while militants and terrorists are on in the north caucasus, who sponsored them and where did they all go. i would like to know where some of them still hang out. yes, they make a statement. and the fact that, and for some time it was considered indecent to speak, did not mean at all that it was not done creeping, hybrid aggression against russia has been going on all these years. this is the ring of fire. it was constantly shrinking, moreover, it was burned in the geopolitical sense, because it was pushing up, because they set fire to both the south underbelly and central asia and the western direction were pumped with all their might. let's belarusian comrades. we will not be allowed t

soviet union. and i'm very sad, but it's from vasily. okayg to speculate ideologically on this. i'm very sad. you are a smart person. do you have legal knowledge? do you have economic knowledge? and yet . you are trying to make an ideological upheaval a coup to pay attention to what is perceived by us as something before relationships. to the second world war and so on, because, well, that was history. we set it up and so on. listen to this for us, maybe some land lizon for the americans. he does not send them back to world war ii. understand that you are. well, it's ours. yes, absolutely history. but this is a land list for an american. it does not mean, uh, if in the soviet man, well, they tell us there the lend list, we immediately recall the second world war and these relationships and the americans. listen, well, cyril, what are you doing me do you live? it's all the time. well, no need to add. i am quite self-sufficient. now i asked for, uh, a lend list. this is figs with him with this lens, and about the biden of his words. and before

moon is a satellite the liberation of the stalinist camps to take the soviet union into space its rival with a nazi past come on baby, okayought two superpowers together. why the delay anyone can say? their dream seemed technically unrealizable one more rocket as powerful as saturn and we'll fail and we won't get to the moon. in this historic battle for space, only one of them could win. stop. let's. let's go faster faster to the complete rout, trying to stop the enemy hitler ordered the use of a new secret weapon, retreat faster faster retaliation , the most powerful rocket at that time, before hitting the target it rose into space at a speed of four times that of sound. help here, help here, people, drag it, it took only 6 minutes for the v-2 rocket to fly to the moon there was no protection, they need a similar weapon. the british called representatives of american intelligence robert staver to a secret meeting on the v-2. you see, not all launches are successful. who worked on the rocket project dr. gas von braun werner his name is dr. werner von where are they missile base von braun runs a base in penjund on the balt

soviet union and then there were few cars. and then there was little traffic intensity. that is, if an accident occurs, it's okay go out of speed, small people need to knock out the main principle that drove the soviet the union had an accident immediately stopped calling the traffic police nothing like such a knockout. many motorists will certainly be afraid. who doesn’t want to lose their driver ’s license for leaving the scene of an accident or be left without an insurance payment if the evidence is not enough, because the main task of insurers is to understand the picture of the accident, and whether the collision of the camera recorded the call is unknown, because it may be that the video did not hit. the accident was out of sight. the camera camera didn't work. the camera was dirty, for example, the snow had passed, so we call, fix the offense and look. is everything in order, is everything another obvious question, will the number of so-called auto- frauds increase? , despite this industry representatives to possible changes. as long as they are skeptical according to the russian union of motor insurers,

okay. and, also, during the -- during the period the united states and the soviet union -- well, when gorbachev power -- >> everybody kept dying on us. [ laughter ] >> you felt very strongly about the opportunity there for a friend ship between your husband and gorbachev. i'm wondering if you can, you had, in a sense, a personal influence which may have resulted in a political effect. >> well, it just seemed to me so silly to have these two huge countries here and not have them talking to each other and try to get together. but, as i say, everybody kept dying on us on the other side and so we had to wait until somebody would live long enough that we could -- that we could talk. but i did, yes, i did feel strongly about that. >> one last question from me and then we're going to take some of the questions that the class had submitted last week. and i will read those and people can stand up and introduce themselves from their seats. one last question, october of 1987, the most difficult time probably for you. cancer surgery, you lost your mother, the book came out, iran-contra, be supposedly writt

okay, sure. i mean, the vulnerability is really interesting. when moldova was created after the soviet union collapsed, it put in its constitution, we will remain neutral. which means they won't join a european military alliance like nato, they won't join a russian military alliance. they really wanted to be neutral. part of that also today means they have a very small army. they have a national army of like 10,000 people. so they've intentionally tried to stay out of any military conflicts, which makes them very vulnerable. at the same time, they've been trying to grow economically. moldova is one of the poorest countries in europe. per capita income is something like $6,000, very low compared to other european countries. but they did have all these plans. i visited a winery. moldova makes lots of wine and some pretty good wine. this winery had all these plans to expand, build a resort, build a spa. businesses across the country were really gearing up to join the world. and this crisis in ukraine, this war, has just ground all their plans to a halt. >> let's go back and touch again on somet

hitler attacked the soviet union to understand the information that we have mortars of the nato type, there was nowhere before. i just want you say that the donetsk militias have them. okays out the information does not confirm. well, just for the purity of experiments, yes, and with a file, if all this is a foreign disguise. well, quite a bit, when you asked the rider to send us, they will help us a little, but now look at the interests of the attack, the coincidence is a parallel. uh, when hyper attacked the soviet union against him, uh, 28 european countries fought with him today correctly said, we have 30 nato countries, only two refuse to supply weapons, it turns out, too, e 28 countries, and nevertheless, nevertheless. you see how the west is in a hurry to pump weapons and ammunition into ukraine, all this is being done because a general battle is coming in the donbas. you saw these echelons. with heavy equipment that is being sent to the donbass, you heard blinkin's fast statement that 8-10 flights with weapons arrive in ukraine every day and here there are definitely decreasers, not only specialists have a question. and why did we look like that, why don't you do

okay. so i talk some on thursday about the collapse of the soviet union. and i remember someone -- and i forget who it was -- was like now i fully get how the idea of -- from generation disaster, the reading we had, how a certain group of people would have grown up in the aftermath of the end of the cold war with really try yum fant, yea, america. america has done it sort of thinking. so we thought some about like the kind of national narrative of -- i want to focus not only as the end of the cold war as an us versus them, but really go into the idea of western democracy has triumphed internationally. national politics and ideology and youth culture. so it's not like teenagers. i'm going to give some geopolitical stuff the teenagers wouldn't have been thinking about. so we're going real like nation state and national ideology. and plafrly around capitalism and just elevating stuff you all said in our seminar for week seven. in week seven, we were reading about international consumerism. do people remember that? [ inaudible question ] >> yes, yes. that girl

russia okay but when there are all sorts of chanel loot and stuff pertaining to pri- let's make it simple. you just write on your stores. citizens born in the territory of the former soviet unionare not allowed in brackets ukraine c. and europe well, they pulled out the turgenev oak forbade to take part. this is such a real classic european model, they are happy, they returned to what will take care of german politicians, and who are categorized as putin as staff that is, those who understood putin and had mutual understanding with russia how could you and they will sweat blush turn pale and say that, that we were led astray, but are ready to atone for everything we can. let's show the pope how in any way he is a fan of dostoevsky it's true, the refugees are divided into groups, they are divided into first and second class, because we must defend ourselves, because this is the cainist model of war. there was a model of the world, there would be no need for this, but we live with this diabolical model of killing each other and striving for power. striving for security striving for many things. they are gods. the girl is very worried , so right in her face, right now, you can fe

okay, so i talked some on thursday about the collapse of the soviet union. and i remember someone and i forget who it was sort of like oh now i fully get how the idea of from generation disaster the reading we had how a certain group of people would have grown up in the aftermath of the end of the cold war with really triumphant kind of like yay america has done it sort of thinking. so we we thought some about like the the kind of national narrative of triumph. i really also want to focus not only on the end of the cold war as a national triumph but in a sort of like us versus them but really go into the ideology ideological triumph the idea that the promise of liberal western democracy and capitalism has triumphed internationally. so some of this is like these little post formal thought to different things at once we're asking you to think about national politics and ideology and then youth culture so it's not like teenagers. we're gonna i'm gonna give some like geopolitical stuff. the teenagers wouldn't have been thinking much about but i think there's thi

okay, so i talked some on thursday about the collapse of the soviet uni the collapse of the soviet union. and i remember someone -- i forget who it was -- was sort of like, oh, now i fully get how the idea from generation to vaster, the reading we had, how some would have grown up in the aftermath of the cold war, which was kind of like yay, america, america has done it sort of thinking. we think some about the national narrative of triumph. i also really want to focus not only on the end of the cold war as a national triumph but in a sort of like us versus them. but really go into the idealogical triumph, the idea that capitalism has triumphed nationally. so some of it is a post-formal thought, two different thoughts at once we're asking you to think about. national politics and idealogy and youth culture, so it's not like teenagers. i'm going to give some geo dls political stuff that teenagers wouldn't think about stuff, but i think there is something shared in the ethos. so we're going real nation state and national idealogy. and particularly around capitalism, and just elevating stuf

soviet union, now russia can act against this enemy by any methods according to the law of war . you can cut off his head against him, you can carry out terrorist attacks. i will remind samoben. okayas it were, a rebel. he was one of the rables, he was not a terrorist, a respected man returned his sword, well, figuratively speaking against the united states america and the collective west, he has already become a terrorist, retrained from rebel to terrorists, and therefore the friends here are in fact, everything is very slender clearly. here is an enemy, please. he can be terrorized, he must be terrorized, he must be treated as he treats the rest. well, in their advantages, the system understands the values, and you understand their understanding of what is happening here, and well, there are all the rest - these are victims. these are certainly good people who need to be treated in a good way. now, as for the words of a colleague, eh? uh relatively of what we must correctly, if nothing is distorted, we must apply what we have not used before and be prepared correctly. i just wanted in this direction once again a phrase. e konstantin valentinovich. and about the fact that we shou

okay, you see. uh, now the world has entered the terrorhold. before. so we remembered listening to the old ambassador, they were people of a completely different culture, who perfectly understood what the soviet uniont is a nuclear threat? what is a world war? the current situation has taken off for the first time in post-war history to an area where there are no rules anymore. where there is no longer any, in general, even a vision of the future, everything is done. well, what is called on paper, and this is the whole danger, because no one knows, that is, it comes from one side, dehumanization of russia but no, no one has any miscalculation of how this could end, yes, you understand, there are calls. let's let ukraine do whatever it wants, but no one understands. and what can ukraine do that ukraine can eventually do what it will come to, because maybe it will blow up a station for itself as a result, it will blow up and write off in russian, but i, in my opinion, they say at the maximum, you know, that is, we are getting into a situation when the world no longer calculates, and this is already terrible, because this, at any moment, can lead to an uncontrollable development. this cloud is somehow

okay being equal. he sprinted. he did not know how bad the soviet union was economically, and they fell apart.iant who doesn't know how to fight, has been real amongst his troops, and will be acting as depraved and as barbaric as any time in history. were watching as they aim for hospitals and schools. they donate to the infantry. and that's who we are dealing with. why would we take a step back on this? we invest our money when not be smart? i hope they're not being political. >> sandra: brian gray tabby or. >> brian: thank you. >> sandra: i believe i will talk to any radio show tomorrow. >> brian: absolutely. >> sandra: thank you so much, brian. a try? >> trace: him a three-point there. stepping on toes and we have been hesitant to step on putin's toes and he has not been hesitant one bit. meantime the bike demonstration is appealing that judges ruling that scrapped the mask mandate for travel, but for now, no masks needed to fly. not so fast for the folks on delta's no-fly list for refusing to wear a mask when they were required. delta airline says those people will not be allowed back on b

okay. someone -- i want to go back to kind the beginningish of your talk. you mentioned there were a lot of americans who went to the soviet union in search of a better life. someone's curious, do we know what bay. those folks? -- what became of those folks? did they have to come back? did they stay there? do we have any information about what happened with them? >> yeah, yeah, we do, actually. yeah. so there were huge numbers who went over in the depths of the great depression. the soviets specifically recruited people who worked in the automotive industry and the steel industry, industries they wanted to build up really rapidly. there are many many books on this, memoirs of people who went over and at first loved it, were astonished, mainly because, like, this is a country on the move. it's building rapidly. it's industrializing. there is work to be done. the soviet people, the first generation, seemed like happy and proud and patriotic that they were producing for the future. and it was good money compared to what they could make in the united states. the living accommodations were great. partly because the soviets wanted thi
