Ah nice, some Khasbulatov action, a fascinating fellow, though I'm sure that nothing bad will happen to him due to his Chechian origins and Russia's general instability. Nothing bad at all.
Khasbulatov, as well as having a rad name, is one of the those figures who might've been able to avoid the economically ruinous plan taken by Yeltsin and his oligarchs. But then again, 1990s Russia was a crapshoot so any potential president was probably doomed to suffer.Ah nice, some Khasbulatov action, a fascinating fellow, though I'm sure that nothing bad will happen to him due to his Chechian origins and Russia's general instability.

True, economically he was always closer to the Social Democratic/EuroCommunist Wing of the Reformists and so he wouldn’t do the Shock Tactics of Yeltsin.Khasbulatov, as well as having a rad name, is one of the those figures who might've been able to avoid the economically ruinous plan taken by Yeltsin and his oligarchs.

Yeah, committing a bit of light treason is always a black mark on you.True, economically he was always closer to the Social Democratic/EuroCommunist Wing of the Reformists and so he wouldn’t do the Shock Tactics of Yeltsin.
But also he did ally with as part of the National Salvation Committee, Die Hard Stalinists/National Bolsheviks and a few Fascists in 1993 alongside Rutskoy so...yeah.
Sorry to hear about your brother.My younger brother was a huge Nirvana fan who died last year from a fentanyl overdose at 24. I'd rather see Kurt go out that way than the way he did OTL, as gut wrenching as my own family's experience was.
Oh god, I am so sorry to hear about your brother and I can’t imagine how horrible that must have been to go through. I’m sorry as well that the update would’ve been a difficult and painful one to read, based on you and your family’s experience.My younger brother was a huge Nirvana fan who died last year from a fentanyl overdose at 24. I'd rather see Kurt go out that way than the way he did OTL, as gut wrenching as my own family's experience was.
Thanks for reading!Interesting timeline.
No 1991 Gulf War it seems.
Ah not Clywd, I like her. Does make me ask, what Ron Davies is doing?Despite, Wales Secretary Ann Clwyd’s forceful campaigning, Wales would reject devolution 55-45%. This saw both Clwyd's resignation from Cabinet and Plaid Cymru’s withdrawing of support from Labour. This defeat then led to sensationalist headlines from the press gleefully predicting that the government was on the cusp of collapse, in a mirror of 1979.
20%... if Perot can get that much and more next election, I could see a Reform President
She undoubtedly suffered for being the Welsh Secretary promoting devolution when Wales wasn't quite ready for it. She's replaced by Rhodri Morgan as Wales Secretary.Ah not Clywd, I like her. Does make me ask, what Ron Davies is doing?
Perot staying in the race, rather than in OTL where he left the race and then jumped back in October, left him more disillusioned. Rather than having the excuse of dropping out, his campaign fell from first to third because of his actions. Whilst Reform does run a candidate in 1996, Perot isn't the nominee and the party does as well as you'd expect without a self-financed billionaire funding all the ads, appearances and the like.20%... if Perot can get that much and more next election, I could see a Reform President
