It was so unexpected then. It still feels weird now. I was 18. I had Boxing Day marked in my calendar as the final day the USSR existed. Less than 5 months later, we had a raging war in the former Yugoslavia. And Europe showed indifference, just as they don't care about the fate of Ukraine today.

In Capitalist Russia it is the other way around.
So it was, as it is.
