The guest of the program is Mikhail Gorbachev.

6 years since the August coup in Moscow.

Talk about the coup: how it was.

Passions around power, the historical roots of riots and betrayals, life in the era of change and the consequences of perestroika for the whole country.

The rhetorical question: why do politicians refuse to learn from the mistakes of the past.

What Gorbachev himself taught August 1991, was it possible to avoid the collapse of the USSR and whether there is a future for the new Russia.
