Gorbachev meeting with citizens in Vremya 1985 promo teaser

[ShadowRSonic]

Gorbachev was a traitor to the Union. He looks back on it now and sees how stupid he was to sell out to the Western scum. He wishes he could change the past.

[Sean4406]

Vremya mean 'time' in Russian.

[Sean4406]

Vremya mean 'time' in Ruusian.

[Roniel81]

Деловая колбаса такая типа... Но, по крайней мере, он не дурак был: по-моему, он, когда пришел, сразу чухнул, что все, кабздец скоро всему, и решил уже крантики все отвернуть до упора, мол, кули делать, помирать, так с музоном

[MSTSnik]

This is Medvedev D.A.

[dasistich]

Well, he's talking about bad situation in soviet agricultural sector. That the only way for peasants to survive is to move to the towns for a job.

[rolodub]

Its a pity he did not succeed in reforming the system, he made a lot of political mistakes but socialism is a better system than capitalism

[nygiantsfan6]

Sadly, perestroika caused the government to collapse.

[mickyc05]

Ok I am not from Russia or the former soviet republics , But i think Gorbachev had a real chance of changing russia and the world, yes the ussr (cccp) had good principals but just got too corrupt.

[rushin2]

Yes. Agree. But so as he had multiple choices to transition to free market economy smoothly. Everyone in Russia knows he made too hasty of decisions to "get there."

Instead his policies were aligned with "friends," as he mentions them, who corrupted the society, bankrupt everyone, and put them on their knees.

Eltsin picked up his "legacy" and catapulted from there.

KGB already knew in late 70's that this transition has to happen. But not that brutal!

Will take a while to repair.

[pocxop]

What's wrong with his mind?! He doesn't seem to be able to express or complete any thought here. He starts with one sentence, then suddenly jumps to another and then yet to another one without completing any previous thought.

[SOYUZ1968]

With Gorbachev in Russia and Shevarnadze in Georgia, this world could be better and dirty yankee shits should be sealed in their dirty country....

[BringBackMy90s]

Shevarnadze is just another Saakashvili-Georgian...

[Pallawish]

Gorby for the win.

[scotcom]

Somebody from that audience should have given him a quick slap & a good talking too :)

[1happiness]

He/She will be thrown into concentration/education camps or executed for the law of the union stated deliberate murder or treason.

[Irishmobster15]

a good taling TO

[vendetta007mike]

somebody from the audience should pul out a Makarov and shoot him at head!

[lfholtz]

To fix it all for non-Russian speakers:

1- Vremja = "time" or "moment";

2- Pravda = "truth";

3- Novosti = "news";

[fidis]

basically what he means is that farmers are not doing their job well, because they are personally not interested. all property is public, and they get their salaries, so they are being lazy asses...roughly said.

but he is the most hated person in the soviet union, the younger generation knows not much about him, but does not hear about him either. one speaks about him more in the west than at home...

[fidis]

he is talking about introducing private sector, better say private ownership in rural areas and agricultural spheres.

[EdOscuro]

Vremya = "news" according to a user in another video

[isselman2000]

Vremya means time.

[trekfancvg]

You're correct, and I've fixed it. Thanks!

[EdOscuro]

Hmm...I'm just repeating what somebody else said. I don't know any Russian.

[RealJoeSixpaq]

"Vremya" was the name of a daily news block at 9 pm Moscow time 20 years ago. So, it was indeed about news. And yes, "vremya" itself means "time" and nothing else.

[ZORGE1st]

It is STILL CALLED Vremya now on most channels

[CzasowAnton]

@trekfancvg

Vremya = "time", not "news". News - "novosti".

[MrDaBucket]

@trekfancvg it means time.

[jennystgirls]

@EdOscuro vremya means TIME

[EdOscuro]

@jennystgirls

I wouldn't know one way or another, thanks for the update. Let the video poster know.

[LiberatedTerritories]

yeah, i thought "pravda" meant truth

[maxime32]

Vremja does not mean 'Truth', how do you understand what you are hearing?

[trekfancvg]

Thank you, I've fixed it. I don't understand Russian.
