Imagine what an awesome Netflix drama series showing the life of Yeltsin would be, this would be the perfect ending ; waiting for a call from Putin that would never come whilst the Soviet anthem plays in the background
His reaction to the revival of the Soviet anthem is so chilling. And how he says at 1:33, "If Putin wins, the freedom of the media will be ensured by all means." Even the dude’s face is like-‘Yeah, sure..’
Even Boris Yeltsin was authoritarian. Even more so actually than from anything we’ve seen from the Soviet days or Putin. Usually what people mean by “freedom” over in East Europe it just means “freedom to be anti Communist”
This is from that really insightful documentary about the rise of Putin. Yeltsin had no idea what he put into motion for Russia. 🇷🇺 It’s fascinating seeing his reaction.
Its like Senator Palpatine coming to power in Star Wars but irl lol. I think only then when it was too late did he start to realize Putin was in fact a Sith Lord lmao.
He handed the power to a smart man who didn't want to be a puppet to the west like him. Yeltsin was a disaster to Russia. he lost a war against some muslims in Chechan and made the nation look weak. he also let America into every single institution in the country even the nuclear plants. he was a weak man.
3:38 In the outside He's Angry, in the inside He's Sad and Crying that Putin will make Russia back to Soviet/Tsardom again, He's sad and he maybe thinking in his mind that he let everyone down
@@BeraubtWerden yeltsin was west puppet when they destabilized it, putin payed rotschilds their debt and got it all back for Russia and wont let em meddle with UA
@@BeraubtWerden that maybe so, but atleast he tried to put Russia on democratic path....it was in these moments he came to realize that Putin was going to do exactly the opposite and it seemed like stabbing in the back for him, you can see it in his face. Yeltsin genuinely believed that Putin could be the kind of leader he never was able to be and would be good for Russia...he never wanted Russia to go back to its old ways and thats exactly where Putin has lead it
@@Balnazzardi i don't think sacrificing welfare for democracy is worth it, yeltsin cant handle the massive uncontrolled privatization that lead to the creation of oligarch, if you think yeltsin is trying to bring democracy then he is literally failing so bad that he end up creating a group of oligarch that he himself cant control, only after putin came, somehow putin can maintain a simbiotic relationship between the state and the Billionaire (oligarch)
Its kind of sad to think Yeltsin was sort of hopeful Putin will "democratize" Russia more. When He hears the "new Anthem" (which is a simplified version of the pre 1991 Anthem of the USSR) you can see he is like "Oh God! What did I do" but at the same time the old chap is tired and bitter after such unstable years with the Red October events, the Chechen and Dagestan wars and the neighboring conflicts in Armenia and Azerbaijan. Both Russian patriots but with clear different visions for the Federation, Putin will prove worthy of protector of Russia but not as a democrat, yet I feel Russia can only be hold together via semi Authoritarianism and not something like we do in the West.
You had me then you lost me, "something we do in the West" is allow free, fair and competitive elections, an ideologically diverse media landscape, and a relatively fair and organized legal system. I'm not saying Russia shouldn't be allowed to decide the bulk of it's own domestic policy, such as management of national finances and the ability to decide what kind of foreign goods to import, but in terms of human rights and respect for the free press, there HAS to be SOME sort of international agreement on these issues.
Yeltsin was no saint, but it saddened me to watch the alienation, grief and bitterness in his eyes and face when Putin brought back that Soviet anthem as well had seen where he had been moving the country to.
Look for more information bud, the anthem melody was brought back to lift the spirits of the citizens and athletes alike, the Yeltsin anthem doesn't sound very patriotic however this one does, even far left Russians would keep the current anthem it just has a more patriotic beautiful tone to it. You people got to stop with saying Putin wants to resurrect the Soviet Union first of all it's impossible there's at least one former USSR Republic in NATO now, whatever the outcome of the Ukrainian War whether they win or lose the results is the same total devastation a lot of money will be drained repairing the infrastructure I don't think a new USSR would want to deal with that. However he does want to bring Russia as an economic superpower which will be hard considering China is soon to dethrone the US from that position.
@CUBE.content oh yeah, because elections are always free and fair in ALL of the post-soviet countries. And before you say anything, i'm from one of the 15 republics that used to make up the soviet union. Even now we have electin fraud.
Reminds me of that time Lenin named Stalin his successor, believing that he was the best for the country and the people. History doesn't repeat itself but it sure rhymes.
What kind of freedom was that ? The 1996 elections was like all out in favor of Yeltsin and in bias against Zyuganov. The press been briefed that their work is viewed if they write anything not in favor the president they can forget their licenses. They all accused Zyuganov of being totalitarian because he was a communist in reality they were the bad boys.

I think I was very privileged, being born in Russia under Yeltsin's rule and also leaving Russia before he turned the keys over to Putin. Not a lot of Russians had the privilege of being born and living part of their lives in a Russia with free flow of information. I do understand that the economy was a disaster during that decade, but every Russian who got to live as an adult then told me that the new dynamics of media and information were truly marvelous. And it all ended when Yeltsin lost power. I'm 29 now, and I wonder if I'll ever get to experience the Russia of my childhood ever again, in this life.
@@Oka100 Probably to "infiltrate" the party. Being against it from the outside is one thing destroying it from the inside takes it to a whole new level.
А ведь Путин оказался прав. Если же вернуть третий куплет из оригинального варианта Михалкова - Эль-Регистана «Мы армию нашу растили в сраженьях…», то вообще прекрасно!
@@geocritic3577 Yeah lol, the whole thing is tragic. Most of Russian history is just sad lol. Yeltsin thought he chose a democratic reformer not realizing I guess (?) he’d appointed a reactionary KGB colonel. Tbf Yeltsin was no democrat [1993 constitutional crisis 👀] but in this documentary which I’ve seen, he reassures a journalist Putin would maintain freedom of the press and when he realizes Putin isn’t what he thought, you can see the look on his face.
“ In 1990, the anthem was abandoned, and a few options were considered. None of them really stuck. In 2000, the old melody was resurrected after various sports celebrities complained to president Putin about confusion and lack of a good anthem to play at the Olympics. Sergey Mikhalkov, one of the original authors, who was still alive at the time, wrote new lyrics that talked about the mighty state and God, rather than Communist party. So, in effect, it is the same, rather than a ripoff. Accepting the old music allows Russians a feeling of some continuity, and lets them identify with the achievements of the country they once were.” Also I feel it’s the same thing as old pagan temples turning into Christian churches. It doesn’t mean Christianity is pagan. It also doesn’t mean the Russian national anthem is red.
He was better in democracy than Putin. But Boris failed to build Russia after the Soviets left. Currently Putin has not build after Soviets either because he still uses their anthem their technology. Russia has not build anything significant like the Soviet Union did. The Soviets had a real military a real space program. Russia does not have that. Russia has been drowning in sanctions since the invasion of Georgia in 2008. It got worst in 2014.
Never appoint a man without a family to a presidential position, cause they dont have mercy or humane sentiment, what a great mistake from yeltsin, now the world is in flames
More importantly he appointed ex-KGB officer to the job....but Yeltsim was drunken fool and even if he hadnt supported Putin I have a feeling that sooner or later Putin or person like him had taken control of Russia anyway
это видео кстати говорит очень многое о культуре политиков. Ельцин показал себя здесь как выходца из Советского Союза. У твоей страны новый гимн. Да, тот, от которого ты избавлялся. А теперь он вернулся. Не нравится - твоё право. Но ты первый Президент. А это новый гимн страны, Президентом которой ты был, закреплённый в Конституции страны, Президентом которой ты был. Изволь выслушать его стоя, а не плюхайся на кресло. То же касается его окружения. Ещё и выключили и гадостей наговорили. Выглядит некрасиво, даже если он тысячу раз прав. А на лицо полное непонимание таких священных институтов, как Президентство, Конституция, государственные символы, преемственность и пр...
какого года рождения, ты, преемственный?) БНЕ ошибся в свои годы не утвердив в законе текст к патриотической песне, чтобы хоть пели гимн а не та-таа-таааа... А ВВП устроил просто подлянку крёстному папаше, мол смотри я уже самостоятельный и гимн могу поменять (без твоего согласия) и под бой курантов специально вставить для тебя папаша боря))) вот такая гнилая сущность у всех правителей нашей многострадальной.

Canada, US, Australia, and Germany were also too big and too complex but thanks to democracy + federalism, they are functioning well economically, socially, and politically. Switzerland is small but too complex and they're also doing well with democracy. Problem is, Russians gave up after 10 years of testing democracy. No democracy on Earth started as a perfect one, not even the Americans or French. During the French Revolution, there's a lot of political instability, killing aristocrats, invaded on all sides, and the democracy is not a real one since only rich men who can buy votes can become member of parliament. They introduced Napoleon, they restored the monarchy but in the end, they kept going with democracy and it took them 5 republics to "perfect the recipe" when De Gaulle introduced a political system that will balance unity/stability (president) and democracy (PM & parliament) and that's the system France has been using since 1958. The difference between France and Russia is that, the French kept improving their democracy for 150+ years while the Russians gave up after just a decade of democracy experiment. The Russians also didn't bother to develop it's democratic traditions for the past 3-4 centuries while the US has been doing that since 1776, France since 1789 (revolution), Switzerland since 1848 (confederation) UK since 1867 (voting rights), Canada since 1867, and Australia since 1901. Even the German Empire which is ruled by an autocratic Kaiser already practices some form of democracy through the Reichstag and giving suffrage to all male above 25 y/o while the Russian Empire just established the Duma decades before WW1 started. That's just how backward, I mean literally backward on social progress and political reforms Russia is. And when they taste democracy in the 20TH CENTURY (1990s) where majority of countries are now democracy, they gave up easily. And here you are saying strongman is suitable to Russia not democracy. What do you expect from dictators? They delay democratic reforms to concentrate political power to themselves only, from the imperial Tsars, to Stalin, up to Putin. Democracy will work in Russia but it should have been started by now and there should be no turning back, if there are flaws then refine it not entirely change democracy as a whole for another tyranny.
@@TimeMakerDotPH Canada, US, Australia, and Germany. Please, there is no comparison, they are small potatoes compared to Russia. In a big country, it is too complex to unify a nation. America is about as big as you can get to have a properly functioning democracy. India, meanwhile, is one step away from anarchy, trying democracy in an over-sized nation. Russia, they long understood this. They always seek strongmen for government, and when a leader lacks this attribute, their days are numbered. Just ask Tsar Nicholas II.
@@broadstreet21 India has over a billion people... The US has 330 million... Russia has... 140 million. Merely one Netherlands more than Japan. Russia may be almost twice the land mass of the US, but most of it is uninhabited wasteland. There is no logical reason why this would cause federal democracy to be impossible. The US also has a lot of uninhabited wasteland, by the way. India, on the other hand, is overcrowded and a third the US' size. You're just pulling shit out of thin air to make autocracy in Russia seem inevitable, which it isn't.
@@LOLERXP India is almost an anarchy. And Russia's vast landmass effectively leaves Russians scattered far and wide, sometimes having conflicting interests. Russia never functioned properly without a dictator or a strongman. Historically, when the leader is found not to be one, they often throw them out in a revolution or the country goes bankrupt.

*We* laugh comrade *We* laugh
Веде видивич Путин
I think I was very privileged, being born in Russia under Yeltsin's rule and also leaving Russia before he turned the keys over to Putin. Not a lot of Russians had the privilege of being born and living part of their lives in a Russia with free flow of information.
I do understand that the economy was a disaster during that decade, but every Russian who got to live as an adult then told me that the new dynamics of media and information were truly marvelous. And it all ended when Yeltsin lost power.
I'm 29 now, and I wonder if I'll ever get to experience the Russia of my childhood ever again, in this life.
Haha, shut up, I was born under Putin, I love my life here in Russia, I wouldn't change it for anything else
@@yumallah You're not even an adult, yet... definitely can't support even yourself

you can find it on Arte!
Name Putin's Witnesses. Но лучше написать на русском название «Свидетели Путина». Автор Виталий Манский
Remember when Putin used to fix everything?
Maybe he should fix the deteriorating cities in the Siberian and Far Eastern regions
never
@@juanalmzn2263ykw he should
Now Yeltsin wouldn’t be so happy after Putin started the War in Ukraine
😂😂😂you think so??? Russia and Putin ROCK
70 year old Boris N.Yeltsin reacts HAPPY NEW INCOMING YEAR CENTURY MILLENIUM PRESIDENT FLAG and ANTHEM
What he mean by reddish ? And he looks sad about new anthem ı donno
probably referring to 'red' soviet union, red flag, red country etc. the return of the old soviet anthem harkens back to ussr which this fool hated
@@kardsufur2966 It's fascinating to know he was once a loyal CPSU member. Only to end up like this. God I really hate this guy.
@@randomguy2533 ikr it's like if you hate the ussr why would you be member of CPSU
@@Oka100 Probably to "infiltrate" the party. Being against it from the outside is one thing destroying it from the inside takes it to a whole new level.
@@randomguy2533 yeah that's why yeltsin being hated by almost all the people in russia
The start of downfall.
А ведь Путин оказался прав. Если же вернуть третий куплет из оригинального варианта Михалкова - Эль-Регистана «Мы армию нашу растили в сраженьях…», то вообще прекрасно!
The end of the 20th century
I remember that day the bell rang admiral kuznetsov left the port of Murmansk and headed to the med
And why Yeltsin renounced at 31/12/1999?
Due to health reasons.
@@mogwai3242 And how much time can be a Russian president?
@@eralor2007 Two times.
@@mogwai3242 But two consecutive times right? Because Putin had been twice: one in 1999-2008 and 2012-today
To avoid responsibilities in many areas
God, I had red hangover instead handover
Выглядит плохо хотя и хорошится.
Спасибо?
President Putin is a great man who changes the world.
Is he drunk?
No not this time, i guess he bacame better when he resigned as president, but he obviosly wasnt happy about the changes in the new Russia.
Just elderly and depressed seeing what his successor was like.
@@RSFSR-Anthems oh
@@BarberJ95 thats sad
@@geocritic3577 Yeah lol, the whole thing is tragic. Most of Russian history is just sad lol. Yeltsin thought he chose a democratic reformer not realizing I guess (?) he’d appointed a reactionary KGB colonel. Tbf Yeltsin was no democrat [1993 constitutional crisis 👀] but in this documentary which I’ve seen, he reassures a journalist Putin would maintain freedom of the press and when he realizes Putin isn’t what he thought, you can see the look on his face.
History
“ In 1990, the anthem was abandoned, and a few options were considered. None of them really stuck. In 2000, the old melody was resurrected after various sports celebrities complained to president Putin about confusion and lack of a good anthem to play at the Olympics. Sergey Mikhalkov, one of the original authors, who was still alive at the time, wrote new lyrics that talked about the mighty state and God, rather than Communist party.
So, in effect, it is the same, rather than a ripoff.
Accepting the old music allows Russians a feeling of some continuity, and lets them identify with the achievements of the country they once were.”
Also I feel it’s the same thing as old pagan temples turning into Christian churches. It doesn’t mean Christianity is pagan. It also doesn’t mean the Russian national anthem is red.
And yet,I still think he was better than Putin
No he wasn’t. He brought Chaos to Russia.
@@Ktaurus26
And great misery.
Basically what's left of the Soviet Union he was allowed to pick up, lmao. The ever lasting failure of communism...
@@hopfinatorischerkuchenkrieger +
He was better in democracy than Putin. But Boris failed to build Russia after the Soviets left. Currently Putin has not build after Soviets either because he still uses their anthem their technology. Russia has not build anything significant like the Soviet Union did. The Soviets had a real military a real space program. Russia does not have that. Russia has been drowning in sanctions since the invasion of Georgia in 2008. It got worst in 2014.
Нет у нас никаких... И задумался 😂😂ахаха
Can anyone give the link for this documentary? Please..
Search rise of putin dw documentary
The moment Yeltsin heard the new anthem he became sad realizing he let down Bill Clinton and his handlers in Washington DC. 😢
He had to suck Clinton’s cock extra hard after this. Very sad! 😭
😂👏
Is this same time Carey Hart where is Nate Adam
Never appoint a man without a family to a presidential position, cause they dont have mercy or humane sentiment, what a great mistake from yeltsin, now the world is in flames
More importantly he appointed ex-KGB officer to the job....but Yeltsim was drunken fool and even if he hadnt supported Putin I have a feeling that sooner or later Putin or person like him had taken control of Russia anyway
At the time Putin did have a family
Putin has 2 daughters and allegedly 3 other secret children
Ignorant comment.
Holy Shit you’re actually retarded, what are they teaching you in school? How to put blocks into their respective holes?
это видео кстати говорит очень многое о культуре политиков. Ельцин показал себя здесь как выходца из Советского Союза. У твоей страны новый гимн. Да, тот, от которого ты избавлялся. А теперь он вернулся. Не нравится - твоё право. Но ты первый Президент. А это новый гимн страны, Президентом которой ты был, закреплённый в Конституции страны, Президентом которой ты был. Изволь выслушать его стоя, а не плюхайся на кресло. То же касается его окружения. Ещё и выключили и гадостей наговорили. Выглядит некрасиво, даже если он тысячу раз прав. А на лицо полное непонимание таких священных институтов, как Президентство, Конституция, государственные символы, преемственность и пр...
какого года рождения, ты, преемственный?) БНЕ ошибся в свои годы не утвердив в законе текст к патриотической песне, чтобы хоть пели гимн а не та-таа-таааа... А ВВП устроил просто подлянку крёстному папаше, мол смотри я уже самостоятельный и гимн могу поменять (без твоего согласия) и под бой курантов специально вставить для тебя папаша боря))) вот такая гнилая сущность у всех правителей нашей многострадальной.

Here's the thing with Russia, it's too big, too complex to be governed like an Americzn democracy. It requires a strongman leader.
Canada, US, Australia, and Germany were also too big and too complex but thanks to democracy + federalism, they are functioning well economically, socially, and politically. Switzerland is small but too complex and they're also doing well with democracy.
Problem is, Russians gave up after 10 years of testing democracy. No democracy on Earth started as a perfect one, not even the Americans or French. During the French Revolution, there's a lot of political instability, killing aristocrats, invaded on all sides, and the democracy is not a real one since only rich men who can buy votes can become member of parliament. They introduced Napoleon, they restored the monarchy but in the end, they kept going with democracy and it took them 5 republics to "perfect the recipe" when De Gaulle introduced a political system that will balance unity/stability (president) and democracy (PM & parliament) and that's the system France has been using since 1958.
The difference between France and Russia is that, the French kept improving their democracy for 150+ years while the Russians gave up after just a decade of democracy experiment.
The Russians also didn't bother to develop it's democratic traditions for the past 3-4 centuries while the US has been doing that since 1776, France since 1789 (revolution), Switzerland since 1848 (confederation) UK since 1867 (voting rights), Canada since 1867, and Australia since 1901. Even the German Empire which is ruled by an autocratic Kaiser already practices some form of democracy through the Reichstag and giving suffrage to all male above 25 y/o while the Russian Empire just established the Duma decades before WW1 started. That's just how backward, I mean literally backward on social progress and political reforms Russia is. And when they taste democracy in the 20TH CENTURY (1990s) where majority of countries are now democracy, they gave up easily.
And here you are saying strongman is suitable to Russia not democracy. What do you expect from dictators? They delay democratic reforms to concentrate political power to themselves only, from the imperial Tsars, to Stalin, up to Putin. Democracy will work in Russia but it should have been started by now and there should be no turning back, if there are flaws then refine it not entirely change democracy as a whole for another tyranny.
@@TimeMakerDotPH Canada, US, Australia, and Germany. Please, there is no comparison, they are small potatoes compared to Russia.
In a big country, it is too complex to unify a nation. America is about as big as you can get to have a properly functioning democracy. India, meanwhile, is one step away from anarchy, trying democracy in an over-sized nation. Russia, they long understood this. They always seek strongmen for government, and when a leader lacks this attribute, their days are numbered. Just ask Tsar Nicholas II.
@@TimeMakerDotPH 🤡🤡🤡
@@broadstreet21 India has over a billion people... The US has 330 million... Russia has... 140 million. Merely one Netherlands more than Japan. Russia may be almost twice the land mass of the US, but most of it is uninhabited wasteland. There is no logical reason why this would cause federal democracy to be impossible. The US also has a lot of uninhabited wasteland, by the way. India, on the other hand, is overcrowded and a third the US' size. You're just pulling shit out of thin air to make autocracy in Russia seem inevitable, which it isn't.
@@LOLERXP India is almost an anarchy. And Russia's vast landmass effectively leaves Russians scattered far and wide, sometimes having conflicting interests. Russia never functioned properly without a dictator or a strongman. Historically, when the leader is found not to be one, they often throw them out in a revolution or the country goes bankrupt.
