Russia is the last republic of the USSR that I haven’t yet told you about in my series. It was among those who founded the Soviet Union and among those who dissolved it. But 30 years after the collapse of the empire, many Russians still dream of going back.
Nostalgia for the Union in Russia has practically become a state ideology. Many people forget about the shortages, about the lack of freedom of speech and trade, but they remember cheap sausages and free flats.
Today we will talk about why Russia cannot get out of the Soviet Union veil.
