The Crisis in the Russian Economy

Retired Soviet Army Colonel Vitaly Shlykov presents a brutally honest appraisal of the harsh realities that are a part of today\u27s Russia. This report was presented at the Army War College\u27s Eighth Annual Strategy Conference, Russia\u27s Future as a World Power, held at Carlisle Barracks, Pennsylvania, April 22-24, 1997. Colonel Shlykov\u27s paper is even more sobering when one considers that the October Revolution of 1917 began in the bread lines of Petrograd and Moscow.https://press.armywarcollege.edu/monographs/1189/thumbnail.jp
