What was the reason the USSR failed to survive?
Why was it dissolved? Was it a failure of individuals that USSR is no more? Or failure of the system? Foreign interference? Wrong implementation of communist ideas? Too many factors stockpiling together?

Today is the 83rd anniversary of the end of the Battle of Stalingrad, the bloodiest and one of the most famous battles of the Great Patriotic War. Eternal glory to the Soviet soldiers who did not let the Germans to the Caucasus oil and did not give them the city of Stalin!

Prisoner of War
Hello friends, I am writing from Turkey. One of my ancestors fought against the Russians in World War I and taken as a prisoner of war by the Russians probably in Sarıkamış. In 1947, the Soviets sent his death certificate to Turkey. He passed away in 1945 in the Soviet Union, most likely in Kyrgyzstan.
The image I shared is the Turkish translation of his death certificate. My ancestor, who was taken as a prisoner, changed his surname to "Yencan" and died in 1945. Is it possible to find more information about him?
This death certificate was issued by the Soviet Ministry of Internal Affairs on 16.06.1945, under document number 10140.
