Answer 2

The Soviet states declared independence.

The Soviet Union collapsed.

Step-by-step explanation:

On August 19, 1991, at 06.00 Moscow time, a statement was read on the radio that USSR President Mikhail Gorbachev could no longer perform his duties due to illness and that the State Committee for Emergency was taking over power. Swan Lake was aired on television screens, as when Leonid Brezhnev died and in long emergencies. The coup d'etat actually started on the 17th of August by the members of KGB.

The last step in the collapse of the Soviet Union occurred in December 1991, when Ukrainians voted overwhelmingly to secede from the Soviet Union. On December 8, 1991, the leaders of Russia, Ukraine and Belarus jointly signed an agreement in Minsk on the official end of the Soviet Union and the establishment of the Commonwealth of Independent States (CIS).
