Old USSR Soldiers` Embrace

Two World War II veterans hug each other wearing the military uniforms at the ceremony marking the 10th anniversary of the 3-day military coup to halt the reform plans. The ceremony was held at the government building in Moscow on Sunday. Although Boris Yeltsin accomplished democratization through the progressive reform policies after seizing the power through the suppression of the failed coup, there is an increasing number of people who feel nostalgia for the old USSR due to the political unrest and the economic stagnation.
