Collapse of the USSR - Raw Footage of Soviet Soldiers Receiving Food Aid (1991)
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 26 сен 2024
- On 30 December 1991, ITN filmed Soviet soldiers in the German city of Potsdam as they worked to unload a delivery of Western aid destined for the Russian city of Smolensk. In March 1991, East and West Germany had reunified, while just weeks before this footage was filmed, on 12 December 1991, the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics (USSR) had become the Russian Federation. With so much change occurring so quickly, it is unsurprising that the old Communist insignia remained on the uniforms of the soldiers. As well as filming in Potsdam, ITN also filmed at three other locations along the route of the aid convoy: in Berlin, the capital of the recently-reunified Germany; in the Belarussian city of Brest, where British aid volunteers spent time with Soviet soldiers; and in Smolensk, the convoy's final destination.

We have been made aware of an error in this video. The first section of film, which the on-screen text describes as taking place in Smolensk, Russian Federation, was in fact filmed in Potsdam, Germany. We always do our utmost to ensure that footage we share with you on here is contextualised accurately but, on this occasion, we made a mistake. We're lucky that our audience is international, informed, and engaged enough to notice such mistakes on the rare occasion they're made. Thanks for watching, we hope you found this video as fascinating as we did!
They are still soviet soldiers though. The CA on their sholdiers stands for soviet army. They are not Germans
@@johnritter6864 just because its in Postdam, doesnt mean they are automatically Germans and it's obvious that they are still Soviet soldiers
If you had a shred of honesty, you would change the misleading title. These are foodstuffs sent not to Russia, but to East Germany, where Russian troops had been disconnected from supplies due to the breakup of the USSR. That was a temporary problem (the Russian troops returned home after some time) but it was advertised as "food crisis". Furthermore, the game was easy: break up a state and then send aid with the English flag, in front of the cameras of an English TV. And the REAL hunger would come LATER, with Yeltsin's government. You can fool many, but not all.
@@lettoreentusiasta9374 bruh, they have already apologized, just move on along, and we all have pointed out the mistakes too
Оккупанты в Подсдаме, им придется уйти из Германии, как и Путину.
The depiction as „Smolensk“ in the first 15 minutes is completely wrong. This is the Alexander Nevskiy chapel in Potsdam, East Germany. Right next to it were Soviet military units and a closed KGB quarter. Also the historical „Russian Colony Alexandrowka“ is right next to it and its a historical landmark in Potsdam. How do I know? I live only 300 metres from this particular place and just look at the civilian cars in this video. This is Germany.
Edit: at 13:52 you can see a tiny poster at the wall, written in German and mentioning Potsdam for some certain event.
Так точно. Это Die russisch-orthodoxe Alexander-Newski-Gedächtniskirche in Potsdam. Эмблемы на автомобилях принадлежат ЗГВ.
Вероятно, что подписи были выставлены исходя из аннотаций приложенных к плёнке, и на каком-то этапе возникла ошибка. Во всяком случае последние кадры похоже Смоленск.
I'm amazed by your powers of observation. It is possible that the aid was first delivered to a group of Soviet troops in Germany, and then transported to Smolensk by the Russians.🙂
@@ДмитрийСадков-с4оDifficult to say which Soviet city it was. It states that it’s Brest in Belarus but could be anywhere else in the USSR. The last minutes when the lorries drive on the road, I can see something that looks like one of these Soviet city entry monuments. But I can’t tell what’s written there.
@@ImprudentmanPossible but my criticism is on the first 15 minutes. This is definitely my neighborhood and I can see the chapel from my window. And I know the history of this area.

@user-ko5dd6jz5r точнейшая формулировка водителя такси.
Let me explain the context. Throughout 91 years, the USSR was falling apart politically - its members left the union. The previously accumulated problems in the reforms were supplemented by the collapse of economic ties between producers. There is an acute shortage of food products in the capital. Later, it will manifest itself even more acutely with a sharp transition to a market economy, and specifically, price liberalization🙂. All these two years, Western countries, in order to somehow soften the transition to the market in Russia, supplied food and humanitarian aid.

So, it was a reasonably good deal. Food and medicine for low-refined raw.
BTW, according to russian autorities, all humanitarian aid was in good, sanitary-approved conditions upon border crossing. Otherwise, it's just don't make it. If , for some reasons, soviet or russian autorities were unable to distribute the aid in timely manner, it's definitely not a question of provided aid, but failed in-country management.

- The Perestroika Deception by Anatoliy Golitsyn
“What is meant [by the term ‘revolution from above’] is profound and essentially revolutionary changes implemented on the initiative of the authorities themselves but necessitated by objective changes in the situation. It may seem that our current perestroika could be called ‘revolution from above’. True, the perestroika drive started on the Communist Party’s initiative, and the Party leads it. I spoke frankly about it at the meeting with Party activists in Khabarovsk in the summer of 1986. We began at the top of the pyramid and went down to its base, as it were. Yes, the Party leadership started it. The highest Party and state bodies elaborated and adopted the program. True, perestroika is not a spontaneous but a governed process.” (From the English edition, via Christopher Story’s “The European Union Collective”, page 83. - No further explanation needed, Gorbachev himself most openly reveals the facts all by himself: Plannedly and controlledly, the Party and State organs reshaped themselves into a ‘new form’ more suitable to carry out the final bit of the world revolution. That was all!)

Не будет будущего у человечества, пока есть капиталисты. Дураки думают, что они будут лучше жить при эксплуататорстве народа частниками и группами капиталистов, где нет стремления к развитию и будущему, где процветает культ разврата и само эгоизма, где человек живет кредитами и боится за свою работу, где процветает ненависть к национальностям. Их преступлениям нет предела. Благодаря Хрущеву, Горбачеву и последующим уродам была отравлена моя Родина, отголоски чего вы видите до сих пор. Мне стыдно за людей, которые чтят класс угнетателей капиталистов и их приспешников националистов.

If only we can have this sort of unity now.
Absolutely
To state a few facts:
Capitalism and the United States WON the Cold War while the Soviet Union disintegrated under its own weight without a single shot being fired; Socialism is the obsolete ideology that failed miserably in Zimbabwe, Venezuela, Grenada, Vietnam, North Korea, East Germany, Yugoslavia, Libya, Sri Lanka, Chile, Hungary, Nicaragua, Poland, El Salvador, Mozambique, Romania, Honduras, Mongolia, Bolivia, Afghanistan, Angola, China (which has been Capitalist in everything but name since the economic reforms of 1964 by Deng Xiaoping), Russia (of course), and everywhere else it has been tried.
Capitalism continues to be the best and only option while Socialism continues to be the worst, the most failed and most lethal after having caused at least 120 million deaths in less than 90 years which would translate in more than 1 million deaths per year.
BTW, how come reds keep bitching about American "imperialism" but never mention Chinese imperialism in Vietnam or North Korea? Or Soviet imperialism in Afghanistan, Lithuania, Latvia, Estonia, Hungary, East Germany or Yugoslavia? Or Cuban imperialism in Angola, Mozambique, Grenada, Nicaragua or Venezuela? Or Yugoslav imperialism in Albania?
And let's finish with the Socialist prayer:
If it's a Socialist atrocity, it never happened
If it happened, it wasn't that bad
If it was that bad, they deserved it
If they didn't deserve it, mistakes might have been made
If mistakes were made, that wasn't real socialism.

@@HazStrikesU The British fought even when they were all alone, the Soviets sided with Germany until they were attacked.
@@atomic4650
The british love to live in a world of dreams when it comes to war history, they make it seem as if they stood alone in the face of a huge possibility of defeat and annihilation and make it looks like a huge resistance against the germans when really it was the Russian who could say they stood alone, considering most of the german force was on the eastern front.
The eastern front makes the western front and D-DAY look like a Paradise in comparison.
British never truly fought alone contrary to popular belief, the british and americans knew that the winner would ultimately be decided by a war of attrition and hence Americans gave full support to the british by their industrial capability in supplying raw materials and weapons in tonnage shipping, which picked up especially after submarine dominance in the Atlantic.
British fought for around 12 months and never really faced the brunt and force of the German armed forces of that time, Hitler did not even plan to takeover the british isles hence why he kept his Panzer divisions behind the coastal areas of Dunkirk and allowed the British to escape because he thought he could sign a treaty and alliance with Britain.
Then operation Barbarossa happened, which Stalin knew of because he had read Hitler's book Mein Kempf, despite not believing Hitler would attack when the british reported their intelligence to him.
In summary, it was the Russians who truly fought alone, without the Brutality of the eastern front, there would be NO D-DAY which was a strategic 2nd front after 3 years of Brutality of operation Barbarossa. Also there would be no North Africa campaigns under General Bernard Montgomery.
The Russians held out at Stalingrad and turned it into a meat grinder for the Germans under General Paulus and captured 1 million German soldiers.
The Russians pushed the germans back who were only 18 miles away from Moscow, all the way to Berlin.
In summary:
British "fought alone" for around 12 months against perhaps 10-20% of the german armed forces and that was ONLY a battle of the airforces in which the Luftwaffe could not establish air dominance.
Russians had stood out alone for 3 years against 80-90% of the Germans and had to defend against air, land and sea invasions against 4 million men, 3000 tanks, 2500 aircraft, 7000 artillery pieces and invasion across a 1800 mile front.
It's an embarrassment for any british person to call that "we stood alone against the germans in WW2", it was a paradise compared to the Eastern front.

He began the rebuild of the nation to what it is today no matter what the west says about him he created a Russia to envy the British and the Americans have sadly realised this too late before getting into a proxy war with them which they now very much regret. The Russians have shown the World they are no push over and that they want to protect their own borders which they have a right to do the Americans/UK have been trying to get NATO involved now they realise the power of Russia.
This War is over and 2024 will see a withdrawal of western support for what really are just gangsters who run UKRAINE.

They were defeated in Afghanistan
@@peacefullif3813 Defeat is a very serious word. The Russians left Afghanistan slowly with banners raised proudly and only because the collapse of the Soviet Union began. A classic example of defeat was in Vietnam and the flight of American troops from Afghanistan,......

I feel sorry for most Russian soldiers. Throughout history, they've more times than not been harshly treated as expendable pawns by their own ungrateful governments, and by their enemies alike. Even today in Ukraine, you'd be hard pressed to find many Russian soldiers who truly want to be there. Most were conscripted from poor rural regions, often the far east of the country. They had little choice in the matter because jobs and education opportunities don't come easy. Let alone being drafted to go get slaughtered in a senseless war. Putin will pay in Hell for what he has done to Ukraine, as well for what he's done to the countless sons of Russia.
Да серьезно? Путин заплатит в аду? А как же простые люди России? Думаете к ним не полезут в карман не отберут все до нитки? После развала все стали жить как голые, ни еды, не денег, бандиты которые вышли из тюрем грабили и убивали и мучали людей, а про солдат вообще даже не смейте трогать к ним и так в 90е обращались как с мешком мусора слава богу что сейчас у нас есть хоть что то, и все было бы нормально если бы ни США ни Англия не смотрели на нас и на наши ресурсы потому что ничего своего не добывают, а только забирают как у Африки все золото и камни и воду и потом удивляетесь почему так…
@@falloutboy6147 Ah yes I remember when America and the UK stole water from Africa... Oh wait that never happened. Also America is pretty much self sufficient.
Some Russians seem to deal with past embarrassments by by blaming everything on 'the Anglos' and it's sad.
Russians of course have never done anything imperialistic ever.
It is the Ukrainians being used as the expendable pawns on behalf of the US State Department.
@@falloutboy6147 тебе путинская пропаганда промыла мозг. Мне жаль, но это не лечится.
@@falloutboy6147 It's a bit more complicated than that. Besides, you should be selling those resources on the world markets. You'd never have to worry about food again. Now comes the complications. Ukraine (for some odd reason) seems to be fashionable right now. You got to end that crap over there. You got Crimea (yours by rights if you ask me, drunken Soviet Premiers handing lands to satellite states is no way to conduct diplomacy) and most of the Russian speaking parts of Ukraine. Hold ground and talk peace. A little real politik in the UN wouldn't hurt either.
Lol Russia and their army looks about the same now

The Union of Soviet Socialist Republics opened an era of a new type of development of culture and civilization, and its experience in crushing Nazism is invaluable today, in the context of a global conflict, the main front of which has been transferred to Ukraine, believes Professor of Philosophy at the Technical University of Crete Dimitrios Patelis, Candidate of Philosophy.
"On December 30, 2022, all progressive humanity celebrates the centenary of the creation of the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics. The USSR, the fruit of the first early victorious revolution, opened the era of a revolutionary transition to a new type of development of culture and civilization: to a united humanity. This was the triumph of the revolutionary creativity of the oppressed, proven by the example of the USSR "that they can take their destiny into their own hands, emancipate society, begin unprecedented revolutionary transformations, overcoming antagonisms and exploitation, towards a society of solidarity and humanity," Patelis said.
In his opinion, the triumphal march of the USSR is associated with the world-historical achievements of man: the fight against illiteracy, the establishment of a number of social benefits, free education, healthcare, medical care, proper rest, the rapid development of the economy, society, science, technology, sports, art and culture .
“A titanic feat was the crushing of the anti-Comintern axis by the Soviet Red Army thanks to the self-denial and self-sacrifice of the entire people of the USSR, ensuring the world with nuclear parity, internationalist assistance to the world anti-imperialist movement, as well as primacy in space exploration. A clear example of internationalism is providing access to education in USSR universities to students from different capitalist countries, thanks to which I personally received an excellent education,” the professor noted.
What did the Soviet government of the USSR give to the people?
1.The right to an eight-hour working day. For the first time in the world in the history of mankind.
2. The right to annual paid leave. For the first time in human history.
3. The impossibility of dismissing an employee on the initiative of the administration or the owner without the consent of the trade union and party organization.
4. The right to work, to the opportunity to earn a living by one’s own labor. Moreover, graduates of vocational educational institutions had the right to compulsory employment in the labor field with the provision of housing in the form of a dormitory or apartment.
5. The right to free general and vocational education. Moreover, both secondary vocational education and higher education. For the first time in the world.
6. The right to free use of preschool institutions: nurseries, kindergartens, pioneer camps. For the first time in the world.
7. The right to free medical care. For the first time in the world.
8. The right to free sanatorium and resort treatment. For the first time in the world.
9. The right to free housing. For the first time in the world
10. The right to protect the state from the arbitrariness of local bosses and officials. For the first time in the world.
11. The right to free travel to the place of work or study using an individual travel document paid for by the state. For the first time in the world.
In addition, women had the right to a number of additional benefits:
1. The right to three years of maternity leave with job retention. (56 days - fully paid, 1.5 years - benefits, 3 years - without interruption of service and a ban on dismissal from the administration.).
2. The right to free foster care for a child for up to one year.
3. The right to a free dairy kitchen for newborns up to three years of age.
4. The right to free medical and sanatorium-resort treatment for any childhood diseases.
There was nothing like this in any country in the world and there could not even be a trace of it. Some social benefits in foreign countries began to appear only after the Second World War as a result of a powerful labor movement caused by the existence on the planet of the Soviet state, the State of Workers and Peasants.
