How did Boris Yeltsin saved Russia from being separated like African Arab countries?

How did Yeltsin Succeeds in keeping Russia together ?

Answer 1

He was a Caucasian.  Africans are Negroids and Arabs are a mixed race of africans and Caucasians.  Now brainy people are generally caucasians and they have learnt from experience to stay together.  For Africans it will take another century or so to learn the same thing.

  

Answer 2

He nothing done for that,his friend Boris B(Berezovsky) was big trader in dimond bussines with terrorists in Chechnya, they played one game all,but thouthands of 18 years old guys were died with thought that nothing will be changed.By Constitution of 1993 few republics got so much rights as it have no Scotland or Ireland,i meant Tartartstan,Chechnya,Ingushetia,you need ask How did Putin saved Russia from being separated,when Putin became PM in 1999 in news he said-We are loosing Dagestan and other Caucasus,then Yeltsin done right deal,he leaved power and gave it to Putin which showed Who is Who in Russia...

Answer 3

The main reason of Soviet Union falling was the economic policy.

There was no free market in USSR. The question what to produce, how much to produce, what is the price was answered not by the "invisible hand" but by the government. So you were a good worker if you produced as much as was planned. It didn't matter what was the quality or cost, just quantity. So there was no efficiency in production and entire economic was working unefficiently.

So USSR just couldn't hold those military spendings that it had to to keep up in Cold war + social policy spendings were too much high. And when oil prices went down USSR was just bankrupt.

Then Gorbachev started to reform the country to try to make it modern (he wanted to make like China - western economy under Communist rule), but conservative politics decided to make revolution known as "Putch" to return back to USSR standards. It happened in 1991. Yeltsin came in just then and using military back up stopped this "Putch" and took control over country and was elected as president a little bit later.

He made a lot of reforms that made Russia president democracy with capitalistic economy. Government property was privatized. At this time those who were close to Yeltsin have bought oil and gas assets at funny prices (sometimes 100 time cheaper than it costed really). So russian billionaires "oligarchs" appeared (Abramovich, Khodorkovskiy, Berezovskiy and so on).

About Russia falling apart - Yeltsin told to Soviet republics "You can take as much independency as you like". A lot of republics parted from Soviet Union forever. Others decided to stay. To my mind this decision is like a firm bankruptcy. You just throw away assets that you cannot keep and concentrate on those that bring revenue. So Siberia with gas and oil stayed, while georgia, baltic states and so on have fled.

Maybe you ment Chechnya when saying about keeping russia together. Islamists tried to make independent muslim country thta would include Chechnya, Dagestan and so on. This problems arose in 1994. When Putin came to power there was already the second chechen war in progress. He finished it and put his own governer there who now controls everything there and will not  let chenchnya to part away. So Yeltsin didn't even finish this crisis. So keeping together NO, but bringing a lot of painful, but needed reforms YES.

the ussr was made up of different countries. when it collapsed many of the smaller countries decided to go their own way. but others thought best to stay with the big, powerful russia. so the ussr was seperated to some extent.
