Demonstration against the Yeltsin Government, Moscow, RU

Anti-Yelstin government demonstrators barricade the Garden Ring road outside of the Smolenskaya Metro station in central Moscow. Russian President Yeltsin had dissolved the Russian Parliament after the Parliament had voted to impeach Yeltsin and appointed Vice President Rutskoi as President. More than 100 Russians died during the two week revolt against the Yelstin government in 1993.
