and here is an explanation from mikhail gorbachev himself.wering questions about the preservation of the union, citizens should, of course, keep in mind that we are not talking about the old, but the new, transformed, truly federal union state. some republics decided to hold their own republican referendum in ukraine in parallel with the all-union one and were asked to decide. whether it is necessary to participate in the renewed federation on the basis of the previously adopted declaration of sovereignty for the then ukrainian elite with it. this was an insurance mechanism. we virgos participate in the union, but only on our sovereign terms as russian citizens. it was proposed to additionally vote for the introduction in the republic of the post of president, elected by the people, as many rightly suspected a new post, they were going to establish it for a very specific person. boris yeltsin, february and march 1991 were marked by the most acute political struggle in connection with the referendum with gorbachev and his team, they mobilized

the last century , today we will turn to 1988, which was the year for perestroika started by mikhail gorbachev and his team in 1985 during the crisis on the march for 3 years, perestroika practically exhausted the initial resources of mass enthusiasm associated with the coming to power of a new team with its democratic style and intoxicating glasnost, as if, the horizon of a new life opened to the people, in reality, the economy stagnated ideologically myths flew around with dry leaves, and in the monopole that sent the cpsu, the reversal grew, gorbachev's team decided to reform the political system. that's how it was? by 1988, gorbachev's team became it is clear that the bet on accelerating socio-economic development did not work, an emotional outburst. the people are fizzling out, the expectations that have rushed upwards are not justified, and nothing can be swept out of the existing economic system with appeals, the big economy, which was called for independence in the newspapers, was still waiting for mercy from the state, especially from the then two pagan deities of the state clan, and

december 16, 1986, sakharov and his wife were released from exile the inspection, how the cpsu mikhail gorbachev able to push this decision through the politburo in spite of the objections of the head viktor chebrikov's kgb the release of sakharov was the first political sensation of gorbachev's perestroika. returning to moscow , sakharov resumed work at his native physics institute of the academy of sciences and plunged headlong into perestroika politics. in 1989. he was elected a people's deputy of the ussr and at the first deputy congress, he naturally became the moral leader of the democratic opposition known as the inter-regional deputy group. at the first congress of people's deputies in may-june 1989, andrei sakharov performed 8 times, painfully, overcoming the wave of condemnation, drowning out the applause and even outbursts of hatred from the aggressively obedient majority. he proposed to abolish the article of the constitution, which assigned the leading role to the cpsu, to transfer all power from the party to the councils , to make the government return the land to the peasants unde

mikhail gorbachev , president of the ussr then they lied that such a promise had never existed at allalysts say that promises were made and concessions should not be expanded. you understand first.

nevertheless andropov managed to do something it was really fateful to strengthen the position of mikhail gorbachevrder to promote him to the general secretary, which to a large extent predetermined the further course of the history of the ussr together with gorbachev. and this is also very important for andropov personally. in led to many parties and state structures. i kiss the blankets of figures charged with change, the essence of which they did not represent very clearly to nikolai ryzhkov, alexander vladimirovichkov for all of them , andropov became the forerunner of the coach and those who showed the way, we can safely say that without andropov's work in the ussr would not have taken place known to us perestroika. today, the day of russia, festive events are held throughout the country. on june 12 , the residents of the far east began to celebrate the first concerts, movie marathons, flash mobs, sports competitions. auto runs to him in magadan started the national festival territory of friendship. and the annunciation solemnly opened the exhibition of the hero of russia with portraits of the

tell, so as you'll recall, in august 1991 there was a failed attempt, a push or coup against mikhail gorbachevur months later, gorbachev, even though he survived that attempt, he was out of office and the soviet union collapsed. so i wouldn't be surprised if again we're going to see some effects of this activity over a number of months with the kremlin probably ending up being less popular than it was before this attempt. meanwhile, we saw ukrainian president zelensky visiting troops today. how do you think we'll see him respond? well, the ukrainians haven't really launched the full—scale counteroffensive yet. they've been conducting probing attacks to look for weak points in the russian frontlines, but now, after this confusion, there could be further weaknesses or gaps in the russian frontlines so i imagine the ukrainians will do some more probing attacks but this is certainly good for ukrainian military prospects. they could have some pretty sensational attacks if some of the russian forces melt away and that is a risk that the kremlin�*s probably worried a lot about. but ambassador, wouldn

and i remember mikhail gorbachev, who was the last general secretary of the ussr, remarked a few years after the collapse of the soviet union. and that the biggest sort, or from a crime or the worst thing that the soviets of the russians did to the americans, was to deprive them of anatomy that the americans need anatomy as the sort of structural concept within the own world view. do you agree with that? and if so, can the americans be ever compelled to accept peace on ecumenical rather than democratic terms? as a single superpower, the united states always need arrival. if we know at the end of the cold war, america's, at that time talking about and of history. in other words, we looked at that, you know, anyone who is not the democrats, the country, or will be the enemy will be the right hopefully in us. and they will be defeated. but they totally ignored. of course. yeah, i mean, i could show the russian contribution to the end of the cold war. this is where i think i was believe george. canon is the one who got the whole story. right. george cannon is the major opponent, quote, to

at the very beginning of perestroika , by the will of general secretary mikhail gorbachev, he was transferredthe urals to the center and put in charge of moscow. one publicly said the other. and did something. third. basically, yeltsin's favor was a simple and obvious choice built into this system. he had already become secretary of the central committee of the cpsu and a candidate member of the polishers. it would seem to be fulfilling the role. climb further up, working for the system. eat , the blessings granted to her, inaccessible to mere mortals, life has already succeeded quite unexpectedly. yeltsin did not fit in, tried to stand across the stream, and then completely decided on a rebellion, apparently, before there was a property of his nature. so his indignant mind boiled, and the most may be the main thing for some unknown. according to the laws, the choice of history as a wedge converged on boris yeltsin, he went into conflict with the top of the cpsu and personally with mikhail in as a result. the rebel was rejected by the system and turned into a political oppositionist. let's im
