We believed in the future. Petrov Vasily Ivanovich

from the formation of the USSR through the Great Patriotic War, the death of Joseph Stalin and a long service in the Soviet Army - to the collapse of the Soviet system, restructuring and democracy. Here is the history of the collapse of one of the largest powers of the world - the Soviet Union - presented by the penultimate marshal of the USSR. Why did such a strong and influential state break up? How did the fall of the socialist system begin? How did the restructuring go and what served as its beginning? What awaits Russia soon if the vectors of domestic and foreign policy are not changing now? Why exactly in the development of the army lies the future of our country? And a deep analysis of the key events of the past, and the narrative of the systemic problems of the present, and the non -reasonable prophecy of many tragic events is what this book is.
