How came the collapse of the USSR?The causes and consequences of this event are still interested historians and political scientists.It is interesting that so far not all understand the situation that prevailed in the early 1990s.Now, many residents of the CIS would like to return the time and again come together in one of the most powerful states in the world.So why, then, people have ceased to believe in a happy future together?This is one of the most important issues, which is now of interest to many
events that occurred at the end of December 1991, led to the creation of 15 independent states.The reasons for the collapse of the Soviet Union lie in the country's economic crisis and lack of confidence ordinary Soviet people in power, no matter what party it may represent.Accordingly, the collapse of the USSR, the causes and consequences of the events associated with the fact that the Supreme Council of the Soviet Union after the rejection of President Mikhail Gorbachev StateI decided to terminate the existence of the country, which has won two wars.
Currently, historians distinguish a few reasons for the collapse of the Soviet Union.Among the basic version are the following:
- too rigid political system in the country, which is explicitly prohibited by many people in the field of freedom of religion, censorship, commerce, etc .;
- not entirely successful attempts by the government to restructure the political system Gorbachev of the Soviet Union due to the reforms that have led to economic and political crisis;
- lack of power in the regions, because practically all the important decisions are made by Moscow (even with regards to the issues that were entirely within the competence of the regions);
- the war in Afghanistan, the Cold War against the United States, ongoing financial support of other socialist countries, despite the fact that some areas of life required significant renovations.
collapse of the USSR, the causes and consequences drawn to the fact that the economic crisis at the time and was transported to the new 15 states.So it may be, and should not have to rush to the collapse.After this declaration is not substantially changed the situation of the people.Maybe in a few years, and the Soviet Union could align and calmly continue its development?
Perhaps the causes and consequences of the collapse of the Soviet Union also relate to the fact that some States feared a new form of government when parliament passed a lot of liberals and nationalists themselves seceded from the Union.Among these countries were as follows: Latvia, Lithuania, Estonia, Georgia, Armenia and Moldova.Rather, they served an excellent example of the other republics, and they became more willing to detach.And if these six states have waited a little bit?Maybe then we would have to maintain the integrity of the borders and the political system of the Soviet Union.
collapse of the USSR, the causes and consequences of the events were accompanied by various political congresses and referendums, which, unfortunately, did not bring the desired result.Therefore, in late 1991, it has almost no one believed in the future of the largest country in the world.
best-known consequences of the collapse of the Soviet Union are considered:
- instantaneous conversion of the Russian Federation, where Yeltsin once spent several economic and political reforms;
- there have been many wars between nations (most of these events took place in the territories of the Caucasus);
- the division of the Black Sea Fleet, the disintegration of the armed forces of the state and the division of the territories, which took place recently between friendly nations.
Everyone must decide for himself whether we did in 1991, or had to wait a bit and allow the country to recover from the many challenges and continue their happy existence.
