Definition

  • Boris Nikolayevich Yeltsin was born in the village of Butka and went down in history as the first freely elected president of Russia. Sworn in as president of the Russian Federation on July 10, 1991, Yeltsin remained in office for over 8 turbulent and decisive years of Russia's democratization and adoption of a free-market economy until he unexpectedly resigned on the eve of 2000 in favor of Prime Minister Vladimir Putin, making the former KBG spy acting president.
