Fall of the Soviet Union | USSR | Baltic States | Red Army | Perestroika | This Week | 1991
*This is a slightly shortened version of the original production.
In a national referendum on Sunday the 17th of March, the 15 Republics that make up the USSR vote to either stay soviet or break away from Moscow.
The Baltic Republics have already voted for independence. In his desperate struggle to hold the union together Gorbachev has been accused of turning away from Perestroika, and using the KGB and Red army to force his will on the soviet people.
‘This Weeks’ speak to members of the Red Army, who are refusing to fire upon civilians and say that they will not support a President who tries to use them this way.
