    7 out of 11 countries believe the end of the USSR harmed their countries rather than benefited them

    That’s because USSR was designed intentionally so that its end would be a catastrophe. To prevent that end. However, since it was simply unable to exist further even on life support, what happened happened still.

    End of USSR being bad doesn’t mean USSR being good. It’s just a choice between horrible end and horror without end.

    I live in Russia and you do not.

      I live in Russia and you do not.

      Which area of Russia do you live in and what do the local people over 60 that actually lived in the USSR have to say? I already know of course and could post video interviews of such, but perhaps you could tell the thread what those people say.

      Forgive me for assuming but I’m willing to bet you’re in your teens or twenties, making you at best 10 years old when it ended, meaning you have little to no actual recollection of what living and working was like. I could be wrong of course.
