Episode 33: Lessons on independence from the former Soviet republics
My guest today was born in 1991, the same year the Soviet Union collapsed. A few years ago, he set out to explore what’s happened to the countries it left behind, and whether life beyond Russia’s shadow has brought the freedom and prosperity many hoped for.
