Why did Soviet Union break up? What exactly went wrong?
In: 111
Boris Yeltsin, a member of Soviet parliament, went to the US and made an unplanned visit to a modest American grocery store. He was shocked by the sheer variety and quantity of food available to the lower classes, when in his home country even the elites didn’t have so many choices. When he returned he pushed for many changes.
There were many reasons why the USSR fell apart, but that’s genuinely one of the things credited with their ~~downfall~~ 30 year pause.
