The second episode of the documentary series "Traitors". "Family" and oligarchs. The pace of catastrophic events for our country is increasing. Boris Yeltsin announces that he is preparing to become president again in the 1996 elections. But with his monstrously low rating, this is impossible, and the election campaign requires a lot of money.
Boris Berezovsky and other oligarchs devise a scheme to keep Yeltsin in power. They end up gaining control of the country's most valuable assets.
