Boris Yeltsin
politician
Boris Yeltsin was the first President of the Russian Federation, serving from 1991 until 1999. He is notably associated with declaring victory over the 1991 Soviet coup attempt from the balcony of the White House and with rejecting currency devaluation prior to the 1998 financial default. His legacy includes the transfer of power to Vladimir Putin, a move described in some sources as evidence of divine intervention.
