У меня́ есть два хо́бби. Они́ немно́го стра́нные. Пе́рвое – я люблю́ гуля́ть по кла́дбищам. Вот, наприме́р, евре́йское кла́дбище. Я давно́ хоте́ла сюда́ прийти́, но у них о́чень стра́нный режи́м рабо́ты. То́лько по воскресе́ньям до трёх часо́в. Обы́чно я чита́ю на́дписи: кто э́то, когда́ роди́лся, когда́ у́мер. Здесь я не могу́ прочита́ть ничего́. Но ме́сто о́чень интере́сное. Смотри́те.
Хо́бби но́мер два. Я люблю́ средневеко́вое иску́сство, но не про́сто люблю́, я хожу́ по музе́ям и фотографи́рую стра́нный лица́. Мой люби́мый элеме́нт – э́то деревя́нный алта́рь. Там всегда́ мно́го-мно́го интере́сных фигу́р. В больши́х музе́ях "Сре́дние века́" – э́то всегда́ мой люби́мый разде́л.
Вот таки́е у меня́ хо́бби. А каки́е стра́нные хо́бби у вас? Напиши́те в коммента́риях.

The Soviet deployment in Afghanistan triggered a 10-year conflict that changed the world. This film unveils the full story of this war, which marked the beginning of the fall of the USSR.

In April 1978, Afghanistan’s President Mohammed Daoud Khan was overthrown and murdered in a coup d’état led by communist rebels. But not everyone in the conservative country welcomed the communist reforms, and a number of insurgencies arose against the new government. In an attempt to prop up the regime, Leonid Brezhnev sent Soviet troops to Kabul. It was supposed to be a short deployment. But the conflict with the anti-communist Muslim guerrillas, the mujahideen, intensified, and the Red Army ended up remaining in Afghanistan for almost ten years.

This was a time when America had an interest in weakening the Soviet Union’s economy and military. After Ronald Reagan was elected president in 1981, the United States increased its military aid to the mujahideen, using Pakistan and its intelligence service as a go-between. Thus, Soviet troops were not only fighting the mujahideen. Afghanistan became a proxy battleground for the Cold War between the United States and the Soviet Union.

By the late 1980s, the Soviet Union was disintegrating. Their army had taken heavy causalities in Afghanistan, and the Soviet population were openly rejecting the war. Mikhail Gorbachev withdrew from the war, but the tide could no longer be turned. A few months after the withdrawal of the last Soviet troops from Afghanistan, the Berlin Wall fell in 1989. Two and a half years later, the Soviet Union ceased to exist.

Through exclusive archive material, this documentary unveils the full story of the war that spelt the beginning of the end for the USSR.
