Tusk called the collapse of the USSR a happy event for Russia and Europe

As noted by Tusk, the collapse of the Soviet Union "was not the largest geopolitical catastrophe of the century."

“Being in Georgia, I want to say clearly and clearly: the collapse of the USSR was a happy event for Georgians, Poles, Ukrainians and the whole of Central and Eastern Europe. And also for Russians, ”he wrote on Twitter.

It was not the greatest geopolitical catastrophe of the century. If you’re in the world? And also to Russians.

Earlier, Russian leader Vladimir Putin explained why he considers the collapse of the USSR to be the biggest catastrophe of the 20th century.

A survey published at the end of 2018 showed that 66% of Russians regret the collapse of the USSR.

US President Donald Trump linked the collapse of the USSR with the participation of Soviet troops in the war in Afghanistan.
