The former President of Russia from 1991-1999. He was elected to the position at a time when Russia was a division of the Soviet Union. Soon afterwards, the Soviet Union collapsed, partly because Boris declared Russia was independent from it.
Boris emerged as a hero in August 1991 when he helped stop a coup attempt in Moscow, and won support from the USA and Europe when he vowed to bring capitalism and democracy to Russia. At the time Russia was very optimistic and glad to see the back of the Communist regime, but they were soon dissapointed.
The 1990s were a very bumpy ride for Russia. Millions of Russians lost money, savings and jobs due to economic collapse and inflation, and as a result Yeltsin never won back his popularity. A few people benefited - the "oligarchs", a powerful group of billionaries who profitted from the privatisation of the economy.
Yeltsin was dubbed a "Democrator" because of his behaviour. He played by the rules of democracy and won a legitimate reelection in 1996. But some of his actions, like the war in Chechnya and the shelling of the Parliament building in 1993 were hardly democratic.
He resigned on New Years Eve 1999 and handed over his power to Vladimir Putin, the last of Yeltsin's long line of Prime Ministers. By this time, Yeltsin was so unpopular that his approval ratings were just 2%.
Not to mention of course, he often took to the vodka.

Get the Yeltsin's Curse mug.Boris Yeltsin, first Russian president was a drunk boi. He, however, was a (more or less) democratic politician. He actually got elected democratically, unlike putin, whom many people consider a dictator. Oh yeah, and Yeltsin was the kid that laughed his ass off with president Bill Clinton.
Hey, мама, why did Putin win the elections again?
-Because he is a диктатор, unlike Boris Yeltsin. I voted for him in 1996, because he wasn't a dirty ass communist.

Get the Boris Yeltsin mug.The act of receiving a blow job from a woman until right before climax, the male will grab an object off of the dresser and crack his oral servicer across the head with it. Preferrably, the object will leave a bruise on her head like the markings that Yeltsin had on his forehead. A plastic baseball bat works quite nicely.
