UDSSR PUTSCH 1991
Yeltsin with his supporters in front of a KGB building next to the ruined monument of its founder Felix Dzerzhinski in Moscow on August 23, 1991, after the coup attemp failed. Russia marks on August 19-22, 2011, the 20th anniversary of the abortive 1991 coup against then Soviet president Mikhail Gorbachev. Tanks rolled through Moscow towards the Russian White House, where Boris Yeltsin, leader of the Soviet-era Russian republic at the time, gathered his supporters after denouncing the coup from the roof of a tank, what resulted later a collapse of the Soviet empire.
