People once took power in the Soviet Union in their hands. And what happened? Stalin came out. And if the people take power into their own hands, whoever got to the top - even Yeltsin - he will still be a new Stalin. He will fulfill the same role. Now why does the West applaud Gorbachev and Yeltsin? What do you think the West wants the Soviet people lived luxuriously were fed? Nothing of the sort! The West needs the Soviet Union collapsed. Gorbachev Pat on the shoulder and Yeltsin, because they think they are screwing up the country. They say: go ahead, Mike, and they are happy to try. A lot of parties, Parliament!

Mark my words!
