yeltsin. and then putin. gorbachev was a sworn enemy. they were with yeltsin. putin, to some extent, inherited that. also right now, when gorbachev passed, putin is fighting a savage war in ukraine actually to remake what is seen as gorbachev made. gorbachev presided over the collapse of the soviet union. putin is trying to build it back by blood and steel. so, it is not that there is nothing strange that the present kremlin and gorbachev had lukewarm relationships. he was not announced officially by the kremlin, though some forces to denounce him as a traitor, and so on. but he is also no hero. and gorbachev would be a much more private affair. again, maybe his family also did not want her to be a state funeral, too -- did not want it to be a state funeral too. that is not clear right now. hashem: ok. maria, the 2021 poll that you spoke about which qualified gorbachev as the worst political leader in russia in the 20th century, is it mainly because of the perception that his policies introduced the collapse of the soviet union, which was described by putin as t

dear that you underestimate this figure according to the horoscope, he will be instead of gorbachev who yeltsinim? here we will give him everything sasha korzhak. well, what is a very interesting topic the era of change is not today. tomorrow everything will be turned upside down. here the girls live my new baked paternal sister. the latest collection back and forth italian haute couture blouse, put everything back in place. then i'll take mine too. what are you standing undress sharper? have fun, sorry. if you don't want it, we'll help you clean it up. we want to dedicate the first issue to the split, the writers being the main figure. i want to invite you, by the way, writers. of course, if someone has not been published before, then only for political reasons, he never participated in any shaking; now he is generally considered below his human dignity. e with embroidery in garden, i'll take a look now, maybe they left it in the car? yes? no, i came with her, how small she is with embroidery, where she could hurt, don't worry, in our house, nothing is lost. now find the salt will find oh, her

conditions and suddenly it turns out that what was still guaranteed by leonid brezhnev mikhail gorbachev, boris yeltsinmir putin will simply destroy it in a few months, despite the fact that gazprom is his personal wallet, we know that he actually receives money from the activities of gazprom himself." first of all, those who belonged to a certain, well, even if it was a party, but still elites who were capable of a certain analysis and behind whom there were people who, well, let's say so, suggested where and what can be done to bypass some icebergs and so on. and so on. in the case of putin, we have a completely different person intellectual, and that's why i think that well, and also, and besides, extremely confident and narcissistic , that's why i think that there is an obvious failure in the context of er-e to pronounce mental and all other abilities on putin's on p and on the other hand on his er-er he has driven himself into a dead end, from which he cannot escape now, because he cannot retreat, this is also the result he created himself. he is invincible, he is all-powerful. he is the first eve

of course, gorbachev was followed by boris yeltsin, a man who didn't exactly lie. gorbachev, this was the beginning of the as it gig, beginning of the cow arctic nineties in russia ingrained in russian collective mind as a decayed of cows and lawlessness. but people mix it all up to day and to blame garbage or for everything are we talked to moscow, vice 9 people out of 10 sant he caused to the disintegration of their once. your great and beautiful country is javier t union. there is a lot of nostalgia for the good old days. and of course, a lot of frustration about the 1st years after the collapse of the soviet union, which were very difficult. and you see the kremlin and also russian president vladimir putin reaction to college of state wooten paid tribute to gorbachev through a he scrambling spokesman pis scoff, saying he was a great statesman. ah, he expressed his convalescence to the family today. however, putin, your sad into will not be attending the ceremony because of scheduling reasons, at least that's what the kremlin says. and it is, of course, ah const. because that putin

he says, in the last few years of the soviet union, the power struggle between yeltsin and gorbachev seem to define much of the soviet union's politics. bush often took steps to remain actively neutral in the struggle, and only when yeltsin called him directly after the signing of the accords did bush take a position, a stance. why do you think bush remain neutral for so long? does that get back to this notion of trying not to interfere too much or impose his will? but to respect institutions? >> i think one of the reasons is that bush realized the tendency of american leaders to think that they can save the world. and orchestrate events in other countries. which has led us to a lot of problems. this is both parties that do this. because he had experience, he said there can be limits to american power. america can be very powerful in certain circumstances, in a hot war that's conventional we can destroy our adversaries. we can intervene. but to get into russian politics and try to orchestrate who is going to succeed, yeltsin or gorbachev, is delusional in my view. i think he did the r

and putin began to arrest people's pride lost after the collapse of the ussr under gorbachev yeltsin n in ukraine is clear evidence there. dealing with him becomes a political issue given gorbachev's achievement for peace in europe and the unification of germany and farewell to him would normally be a must-attend event, but usually no longer exists with putin in these times. how are you against the backdrop of the grave? i don’t know what impression this will make around the world in the west , gorbachev was glorified, as a hero it is noteworthy that there was not a single head of the european hungarian prime minister viktor urban is one of the few european leaders who maintains good relations with putin the hungarian prime minister, who often criticizes western sanctions against russia, attended the farewell ceremony on saturday for hungarian prime minister viktor orban. one of the few foreign politicians came to the farewell ceremony, others did not come because of the war in the house of soviets in moscow, mikhail gorbachev lay in an open coffin for a moment filled with tradition a

gorbachev had lukewarm relationships. ah, he was not denounced officially by the crammed window program when forces did denounce him as a traitor and so on. but he's also no hero and he's not, i'm glad yeltsin. who had of course, a state very much a funeral. gorbachev would be a much more private affair. again, maybe his family also didn't want to be us. they few a funeral to at south korea right now. okay. maria, the 2021 pulled that you spoke about which qualified to go, but have as the worst political leader in russia in the twin see as century. is it mainly because of the perception that the a, his policies introduce the collapse of the soviet union, which was described by putting as the greatest geopolitical catastrophe of the central was because people think that he failed in delivering on political and economic reforms. well, it retro stepped, are the soviet time on and especially the late soviet decades are seen by the russian people. not overwhelmingly, but by a majority. as a good time, as all the time when the states still care of the people who in or their relation between the amount people on was kind and more humane than to day when people thought less about money. and of cour

you saw yeltsin as a monument to gorbachev, no matter what he was for you are a living person who couldot be denied he simply became as red as a beet and that was the end of all discussions i remember i just think that i cannot sum up, you understand because that is because we can understand it only from a distance of 100- 150 years and we are contemporaries for for you gorbachev clearly, this is already a person with er, to some extent, from the textbook, for me, this is just a person with whom i spent some time there in various situations and when gorbachev was in power, when he was not in power, but in in any case, not enough time has passed for us to understand it, we understand it as a matter of fact, let's say it as a matter of fact, now we see that modern russia hates this gorbachev and this khrushchev. this one broke the union, this one gave crimea to the bastard. well, that's the whole assessment, that's all they why do they talk about them? they love lenin if according to their logic he created ukraine in general and they hate ukraine it is for me he took all these lands he cr

for him; in the end, gorbachev, who returned to moscow, instead of immediately taking control of the situation, gave all the laurels of the winner as an emergency to boris yeltsina more than convincing explanation for his wife. raisa maksimovna , against the background of what she experienced, became seriously ill, mikhail sergeevich spent a lot of time in the hospital with her not in vain, then they quoted his words, which they considered. romantic i'm married not to the side married to my wife, this choice turned out to be in many ways, decisive for a further political career. gorbachev although he fought, the chances of signing a union treaty, even if a confederal one , remained. here are the leaders of the republics, including yeltsin, publicly speaking out in favor of the union november 91st press conference in novaya orel will i think that the union will be kazakhstan but always stood for the preservation of the union please discuss that the union will be a union of sovereign states tire the confederate states turned out to be a lie, instead of signing agreements between the leaders of russia, belarus and ukraine gathered in the hunting residences of belo

in the last few years of the soviet union the power struggle between yeltsin and gorbachev seem to define much of the politics. they took steps to remain actively neutral and the only one call directly after the signing did bush take a position, a stance. why do you think bush remains neutral for so long? does that get back to the notion of trying not to interfere too much or impose his will but to respect institutions? i think bush realize the tendency of american leaders to think they can save the world. and orchestrating events and other countries which has led us to a lot of problems for this is both parties. can meet very powerful in certain circumstances. in a hot war that is conventional we can destroy our adversaries. we cannot intervene. but to enter russian politics and try to orchestrate who is going to succeed is delusional in my view. i think he did the right thing by being in neutral. it is because of his own sense of balance and prudence in my view are not conservatives. in a historic sense of the word. they are like george bush i argue a great british politician and member

then there was gorbachev with yeltsin and we have something for the general assembly that we have toit in an interesting way. and how should we change then, and again no-no, it's good. here's one for a conversation. that is, it is not necessary to change it. quite right. wait, and one more thing that i would like to stop. this is where it sounded. and this, by the way, unfortunately sounds everywhere and everywhere that it is impossible to exclude us from the joint un according to the charter, because we are the founders. yes, it's all right. everything is fine, only the most dangerous is underestimate the threat. open bushes. read in the charter the founders are not the russian federation but the soviet union of the russian federation a. right here, right here, right here, let's stop for a moment. i remind you, the end of december in the ninety-first year, yeltsin sends a letter to the secretary general, he is a message that the russian federation is taking over the powers of the ussr e, waves in the security council, the then secretary general sends this letter to all members, e he

gorbachev was saying early on putin was helpful in bringing chaos of the sort of chaotic global capitalism that developed under yeltsinunder some control. but absolutely, i don't think we should interpret this as something that gorbachev was supporting putin. he hated the war. i did not talk to him, but i spoke to somebody to kind of deliver a message to him and his words to me that he hated all of it. he just thought -- he felt very sad that russia gave up on this potential that really was given to us into the world. as for the protests, yes, mikhail gorbachev -- it is a just bought it country. it always existed through repression and he could not escape some of it. in 1989 who could have sent to east berlin to defeat the falling of the berlin wall. and yet he didn't. let's remember, i know it is a horrible thing and it is a horrible thing but people died but comparing to soviet history, 13 people. death, of course, every pursing counts. but i would like to remember contextually gorbachev was an absolute democrat in comparison to anyone who came before him, including nina khrushcheva. nermeen: nina khrushcheva, you n

unfortunately, gorbachev created a fund of his own name immediately after his resignation, assuring yeltsinhe would no longer be engaged in politics. vladimir polyakov talks about communicating with gorbachev, like a gift of fate. he was a man, you know, a man with morals. he never changed his principles. people's artist of russia yevgeny mironov played gorbachev in a sensational performance, met him while working on a production, however, on the stage of the theater of nations, gorbachev was an unambiguously positive character, a romantic in love, despite the huge test. he remained confident in himself, under what he was and misha a combine operator , a clean, open, absolutely frank, ah, decent person, and he remained that way when in in 1988, gorbachev went to england and did not visit the grave of karl marx what was mandatory for members of the cpsu philosophers, alexander zinoviev immediately noted the beginning and the era of gorbachev's betrayal entered the history of our country. in the saddest way, as the first main destroyer of that country that flourished, and as the destroyer of

zelensky calmly decided to go to raisins, these are the consequences of the brezhnev era, not gorbachev's, nor yeltsin'sdangerous ideas in society, the first idea, if only there was no war. this is endless from top to bottom, if only there was no war and no few people thought, but this formulas are a continuation, a very nasty continuation , if only there was no war, then, in general, it is possible to capitulate with certain ones. you can surrender under certain conditions, i remind you, we repeat france, if you take the french press in the thirty-ninth fortieth year, there were tires, amazing headlines in the figaro newspaper first die for poland question mark then die for norway question mark then die for england question mark and the last one to die for france and the question mark here, in principle, is the same with us in the brezhnev era and happened through this terrible formula. as long as there is no war, the second formula is no less dangerous, let's agree. we will always agree. the main thing is to involve diplomacy and multilateral institutions. of course, we will agree , we will always fin

he certainly would have could have bestowed on mikhail gorbachev did on boris yeltsin who didn't privately. but he wanted to convey that he is uneasy with gorbachev's legacy. never vladimir putin called the collapse of the soviet and the greatest geopolitical catastrophe of the 20th century brought about the demised "historical russia. unreal economic hardship in the 1990s. so real interesting obviously perhaps not a huge figure in russian history but a huge a figure in world history per gorbachev during a number of deals honestly with ronald reagan and stealing his in all of our memory. >> ryan, thank you very much. that's going to do it for us. we are back at 4:00 p.m. eastern the journal report cap next with 30 grams of protein. those who tried me felt more energy in just two weeks. uhh... here, i'll take that! yay!!! ensure max protein, with 30 grams of protein, 1 gram of sugar enter powered by protein challenge for a chance to win big! only at vanguard, you're more than just an investor—you're an owner. we got this, babe. that means that your dreams are ours too. and our financial pla

russia and that it was a betrayal and today we see memoirs and hear, uh, repeatedly memoirs of yeltsin and gorbachevhat role, uh, in this case, the president of ukraine did, so to speak, solving the issue by collapse. e of the soviet union, that is, played a key role, yes, a key role and the action that they carried out followed the template about this 50 years ago, he wrote to zhizinsky and many other heads of the special services, setting the task, as the americans have always played and will play for a long time, they made a decision to destroy russia for this, there were attempts, they did not succeed. well , most importantly, look here. i recently, uh, saw one post by some journalists on the internet, who, what happened over the past 500 years, how europe lived and the last 150 years, the united states, they lived all their lives robbing the whole world. trying to get hold of and there's an example one the dutch steamer brought so much money there from asia that they were equal to five budgets. e peter i and in order to save russia, peter i removed the bells and poured, uh, and poured. this is

yeltsin years. one of the interesting things, i don't think anyone was prepared, certainly gorbachev wasn't. to let the warsaw pact lives. i don't think it was important to him, the economy in russia needed attention. i say russia, i do mean in the soviet union, because he was a man of the soviet union. but the post gorbachev, which happened very quickly, he didn't expect to be the victim of a coup when he went on vacation in crimea. it was a very, very difficult time for him and i think that no one has ever seen what happened to a society that has been a totalitarian society, in which everyone has turned on everyone else and you have this central kgb chequered history where anybody at any time can be denounced and sent away. that structure, political, economic and social disappears, i think it makes people a little crazy. and after a while they begin to want the comfort of what was, even if what was was really kind of awful. i think that what happened post gorbachev in russia, was that people gravitated ultimately towards the strong man, the strongman being the guy who was in berlin when he

approved of such changes, and as you all remember, gorbachev’s isolation at the dacha in foros, well, after the decision of the three leaders yeltsink and shushkevich in glavya pushcha to create the commonwealth of independent states, the president’s decision followed. gorbachev about his resignation , the soviet union collapsed almost immediately, the story went in a completely different way farewell to mikhail gorbachev. here in the house of the unions it will last for about two more hours, they will bury him, as mikhail sergeevich bequeathed him at the novodevichy cemetery next to the wife of raisa maksimova denis thank you for direct communication from the house of unions, where the farewell ceremony for mikhail gorbachev was held my colleague yevgeny rozhkov now to the events in donbass, six civilians were killed after shelling by ukrainian militants over the past day, another 17 people were injured, unfortunately, it was not possible to save a fourteen-year-old teenager who fell under an artillery attack . shells flew right in the center of donetsk. in the kuibyshevsky voroshilovsky and kalininsky districts of the city the ca

russia and that it was a betrayal and today we see memoirs and hear e, repeatedly memoirs of yeltsin and gorbachev played a key action. yes, the key role and the action that they carried out followed a pattern about this 50 years ago, bzhinsky and many other heads of special services wrote, setting the task, as the americans have always played and will play for a long time, they made a decision to destroy russia for this was an attempt they did not succeed, but the most important thing. look here. i recently, uh, saw one post by some journalists on the internet, after all, what happened over the past 500 years, how europe lived and the last 150 years, the united states, they lived all their lives robbing the whole world. trying to get it, and there is an example given, one dutch steamer brought so much money there from asia that was equal to five budget. e peter i and in order to save russia, peter i removed the bells and poured, uh, and poured. this is the most guns from them, understanding that this always happened with us, and they lived at the expense of others. at the same time, spreading all

probably , after all, it is to make sure that neither a second gorbachev nor a second yeltsin appearst as regards resistance to external pressure, the ability to overcome it unconditionally. we will do it all. well, in the meantime, in the background here this debilitation of ukraine i have another word. i just can’t pick it up, military operations have been declared almost martial law, and there are these crazy parties that have lost their normal human appearance, ukrainian youth, well, either stoned or debilitated. here he summons her. this contingent will be sent to the front as cannon fodder. well, in europe , meanwhile, the demand for such a traditional russian element of clothing as felt boots is increasing. i would like to wish her the european union a cold snowy winters in order to better experience those delights. which you can get, just like traditional russian winter clothes, and from the fact that if you still get really bad, turn on nord stream 2 as soon as possible. for the time being, with regard to boots, you can giggle on this topic for as long as you like, but today

gorbachev himself should not be blamed alone for this. but since he is a centralfigure, of course his successor, yeltsin and putin basically blamed it on himin who followed, arguably who has to take his share of the blame but ended up giving a state funeral and all the honours the state could possibly throw at him. yes, mikhail gorbachev, he gets the guard of honour, but he is noticeably denied a state funeral and arguably his family have been snubbed by president putin, the kremlin would say otherwise, would say the president has no room in a schedule, but frankly, leaders always make room in their schedule of funerals and their predecessors, and if they don't is always interpreted as a statement of hostility. it don't is always interpreted as a statement of hostility.- statement of hostility. it was clearly subterfuge _ statement of hostility. it was clearly subterfuge not - statement of hostility. it was clearly subterfuge not to - statement of hostility. it was i clearly subterfuge not to attend statement of hostility. it was - clearly subterfuge not to attend the funeral and not to give the status of a state funeral. boris yeltsin was

were only three periods, when russophobia subsided under gorbachev, when the soviet union collapsed and the west achieved its goal under yeltsinwas not quite sober during the world cup, when suddenly russia, surprising itself, became kind, open and somehow very soft, so you actually have. here, looking at these three examples, there are only three options, either the one that the west wants and that which gorbachev began to implement, or as it was. or become kind-hearted and roll back for a period to the munich speechful, like gorbachev is excellent, great option. yes, i think you are u needless to worry about the threat of this hostile russophobic, and dangerous u western organizations, which do you think. uh, try to engage in subversive activities and split why because in russia there is a huge, but powerful method and fight laws that prohibit these organizations and organizations are against you, the kharkov organization is prohibited, therefore, it seems to me that while the motherland is protected by law, it is protected. no, a law is required that equates russophobia with nazism inside russia. only in this way will we pr

civil society, but far from making russia prosper on the initiative of gorbachev, he came to our country with the full connivance of yeltsin only in 2003 that i managed to get it done in russia. now i most actively repeat in russia what happened during the collapse of the ussr but alas, there is a difference then the union died, and europe was experiencing an upsurge and flourishing now, on the contrary, russia is returning, and the european union is falling sad situation, but our foundation has done a great and successful job. especially considering that i focused more on ukraine in 1990 on the basis of the nationalist association of the skylight. he founded the renaissance foundation, i created the foundation. in ukraine, even before that, ukraine became independent from russia has been working there ever since and now it plays a rather important role in the events there in 1992. he was a member of the verkhovna rada. when he first met an american philanthropist, it was much later that the whole world would recognize the hummock as a disaster capitalist. there was a conversation for quite a long time, but i already said

how much, either as it was under yeltsin, or become kind-hearted and roll back for a period, and he is munich and supple, like gorbachevot suit you. it seems to me that you are in vain, uh, worried about the threat of this hostile cargo, but dangerous u western organizations, which do you think. uh, trying to subvert and split. why am i because in russia, uh, a powerful method and fight against you laws that prohibit these organizations and organizations are prohibited organization is prohibited, so. it seems to me that the motherland is protected by law. no, a law is required that equates russophobia with nazism inside russia. only in this way will we protect ourselves. domestically, well it's like denial holocaust denial let's say european countries can be very dangerous. is it possible to work with this for 100 years? and all the more, you sent a message not even to the intelligentsia, but to the intellectuals, and here nikita is exactly when you say that you need to act, how to repress during the war. this is also very extremely dangerous rhetoric, because it is the intellectuals who must contribute to the future o

in the russian tricolor, gorbachev's coffins were delivered to novodevichy cemetery, where lie not only many soviet politicians, but also the main political opponent boris yeltsinthe only president of the ussr and the last general secretary of the cpsu, was buried next to his wife by flight kateryna fedorchenko tsn 1+1 marathon only news in a new format with a limited number guests and locations with a spare stage in a bomb shelter, poetry readings are held in chernivtsi, meridian charnets, works by 30 authors, and in addition to ours from germany, austria, switzerland, and israel, andriy lyubka, iryna karpa, kateryna kalitko , present new books before a full-scale invasion, for 12 years in a row, the radian chernivtsi festival was a bright cultural event and collected a lot of non-tourist places, poetry was read in unusual locations, on the train, in the market, in the synagogue or just in the middle of the sleeping area and accompanied music and theatrical performances, but during the war, the organizers say, it is important even that the poems just sound and they want and can listen to them. in 2017 , the poetry festival at this time is already a phenomenon

gorbachev a controversial person? he, like all his successors, dreamed of a union that must include ukraine. who among them, including yeltsin see the future of ukraine as fully independent and independent ? of the state in the future, of course, the difference will be in what ways this was achieved, in contrast to russian president putin, gorbachev was not ready to resort to violence, although he had such opportunities, professor kashevyi and her colleague motil, and this is already his merit, professor motil believes that modern russians underestimate gorbachev's legacy, because many of them still miss the soviet union. well, what he did was much better for the world, for ukraine, and ultimately for russia itself, but when you mean it, make sure that you it is difficult to convince them that the end of the empire is a positive thing. a week after the full-fledged invasion of ukraine, mikhail gorbachev celebrated his 91st birthday . he did not make official statements about russian aggression , however, in 2014 he declared that he supported the annexation of crimea gorbachev died on august 30, the former general secretary w

well, we go into dacha, damn it, towards gorbachev in the full version of beige, there was only an excuse. we hope that the relationship with yeltsinore trip to belovezhskaya pushcha. he cooks secretly from his deputy, well, journalists will ask this strange team with their flies, what do you see strange with many, we fly to sign an agreement with belarus on its economic cooperation, and in the morning i find out that everything is more of the soviet union. no. what is it called? am i some kind of puppy or there from the gate some day? i'm still vice president, and in 1993 yeltsin decides to change everything by his decree. he dissolves the congress of people's deputies and the supreme soviet by the majority of deputies. this is not accepted even in the dark by candlelight, because the light was turned off, yeltsin was removed from office and alexander rudsky was elected acting president 2 years after the state of emergency . after these events , 15 years later, i met grachev. himself came up to me, said, sasha, forgive me, he said, he ordered the etin to prepare officers to put tanks in front of the hotel, ukraine for intimidation

boris yeltsin who became president of russia effectively consigned the soviet union into history along with the presidents of ukraine and belarus who pushed hard for independence. president gorbachev well travelled for a russian leader and he had many contacts even amongst some who are critics of the soviet regime and his great campaigns were for openness and more knowledge about what was going on the soviet system and also for reform and change of the soviet many muscovites and russians rued the day these reforms became an because it became an economic free for all and the economy suffered in the aftermath. figures from across the world have been paying tributes to the last leader of the soviet union. our correspondent helena wilkinson looks back at mr gorbachev�*s life. mikhail gorbachev, a leader who will be remembered figures from across the world have been paying tributes for overseeing enormous changes. mr gorbachev took power in 1985. he introduced political and economic reforms to kickstart the country's economy and he helped to end the cold war. to the west, he was a hero. he charmed on the international stage. here, meeting the then—prime minister margaret thatcher, on h

gorbachev has granted an abc news production team and me exclusive access. we join him in his kremlin office. there's an innocuous looking brief case holding, we are told, the nuclear launch codes. his successor, boris yeltsinsh, is celebrating the christmas holiday at camp david. >> merry christmas. >> gorbachev calls to say good-bye. george, my dear friend, i greet you. let me begin by saying something pleasant. i would like to say merry christmas to you and to barbara and your entire family. >> it is how the final hours go. a series of good-byes culminating with a farewell broadcast to the russian people. >> translator: dear fellow citizens -- >> an hour after the resignation speech, i'm invited back into the office. >> ted, i understand we're saying good-bye. but i'm not saying farewell. >> i hope not. >> gorbachev's answer to an innocuous question resonates strangely now more than 30 years later here in the united states. what are you going to do tomorrow? >> translator: tomorrow i will still be here sorting out some papers and some personal effects. some will be sending to the archives, some will be destroyed, some i will take to my country, to my city apartment, so i have to do it. it is the big wash

gorbachev's stay in the summer residence in the crimea, behind his back, representatives of the security forces will try to organize a coup that will fail due to the active actions of young democrats, but yeltsinbe able to regain his former power. he will repeat more than once that the union is his drama and will even support the annexation of crimea, but he will seem to condemn the full-scale war of russia against ukraine, at least that is what his friends claim mikhail gorbachev will be remembered as such a controversial figure. having passed away at the age of 92. some believe that what is symbolic of him will now finally disappear forever, and the scoop that putin wants to restore with the help of military force, but without success. kateryna pavlovska ictv facts of the week - the only news well and at the very end, as always, a vivid video from our incredible ukrainian military , we haven’t seen the work of bayraktars for a long time, and they work like in the song from the russian fascists, they make primar bayraktar, watch and we say goodbye to you until next sunday glory to ukraine rebuild taras let's launch we will win that you nina news together we are strong until february 24 i work

the irony of fate gorbachev left, outliving all the belovezhskaya pushcha conspirators, all who pushed him away from power and signed out a separate national apartment for himself. yeltsinhim. and now we sum up era, which was named after him, what was it like and what did he do? he, what, for him they can argue about this? probably this. the main thing he did. at least successful, he gave the whole country a chance to speak out, which lacked jeans and machine products, but what was lacking most of all was the opportunity to speak without fear. only later it turned out that this was not enough.

but what gorbachev couldn't do is he couldn't deliver and he didn't have enough time to deliver because the main problems came under president yeltsin when people were really destitute, the economy didn't work. and of course luck always plays a role here. the price of oil was very, very low. contrast to today under president. and what is fatima putins view of gorbachev legacy? do you think? well, i don't think he is. i'm going to acknowledge that the changes, garbage i've made were positive ones opening up the system and talking about the past, trying to rain in the police, the military. i saying that the communist system was a terrible system. ah, all this is not anything that bad couldn't, would say, and he's trying to in effect, re rewrite history og garbage. i've tried to change it in one direction, and putin has had now 20 years more to change it in other direction. and he is undoing and hasn't done most of the changes i gorbachev's i wanted. the real tragedy is that the russian population also sees gorbachev as a weak leader and what they want as a strong leader and they want to strong russia. and the question is, can couldn't
