prigozhin s men might even have toppled vladimir putin s government. it s a pretty chilling thought. russia s problems today are the same as they were back in 1917, when tsar nicholas s rule collapsed. scarcely anyone seems prepared to stand up voluntarily and defend the state. i was in moscow in august 1991 for the extraordinary, rather absurd kgb coup against mikhail gorbachev, when boris yeltsin famously jumped up on a tank and defied the kgb. i was amazed by how few people were prepared to turn out and support him. sometimes, outside yeltsin s headquarters, i could see there were just ten or 12 volunteers hanging round to defend him. a couple of kgb men with guns could have captured yeltsin and ensured that the coup succeeded. well, it didn t happen.
