Vladimir Zhirinovsky criticizing Soviet government (English subs)

FOR SUBTITLES TURN CAPTIONS (CC) ON. In this video, Zhirinovsky criticizing Soviet government and Soviet system.

This is one of his funny speeches, and he makes everyone laugh again. At some point you can see Putin can barely hold his laugh. But, like always, calling things with their names.

So basically it’s a park, with some monuments built during Soviet Union. 3. Read more about Philosophers’ motor ship here: '_ships Thanks for watching! Trolls and haters: Go to hell.
