Date
Archie Brown was interviewed in a programme called Cross Talk on Russian television channel RT TV (19 August) about the August Coup in 1991, seen by many as the event which brought about the demise of the Soviet Union.
The programme, which can be seen again here, asked whether the Soviet Union could have been saved if the coup had succeeded, and why it failed.
