Attempted coup d'etat in the USSR in 1991

USSR. Moscow. Civilians clash with a column of armored vehicles near the Tchaikovsky Tunnel on the Garden Ring during mass riots during an attempt by members of the State Committee for the State of Emergency in the USSR (GKChP) to carry out a coup in the country. In order to prevent the signing of the Union Treaty, which was supposed to replace the USSR with a new federation of sovereign states, representatives of the highest Soviet leadership, headed by Vice President of the USSR Gennady Ivanovich Yanayev, removed USSR President Mikhail Sergeyevich Gorbachev from power and declared a state of emergency in the country.
