In 1991, a great Power, the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics, perished...Who is to blame for what happened? Was there someone’s malicious intent here and who benefited from it? Maybe the state collapsed due to objective historical circumstances and there is no one to blame? The author Alexey Kofanov, a caring person with an active civic position, is a plaintiff in an unprecedented case entitled “Murder of the USSR.” In legal practice, the case is exceptional, because the victim, in the opinion of the majority, was not an animate person, but nevertheless, the meeting of the Tribunal will take place. Nine days of hearings, nine days of accusations and frank confessions, and a harsh sentence in the finale... The book excites and captivates even completely apolitical people, and although the publisher does not always agree with the author, it is a must-read.
