Description

Galina Starovoitova entered politics two years before the collapse of the USSR, at the time of radical changes in the country; and all her activities over the course of ten years, until the moment of the murder, was both a hit on time and a fantastic advance. She was a real politician of the 90s, built a young Russian democracy, looked to the future with hope, soberly and bitterly assessing the present. But she can also be safely called a politician of the XXI century: Galina Starovoitova spoke about the most important current problems of our society, ahead of her time by several decades.
