Boris Eltsin
Boris Eltsin was the first President of Russia, serving from 1991 to 1999. A key figure in the dissolution of the Soviet Union, he is credited with implementing significant reforms that transitioned Russia from a command economy to a more market-oriented one. His presidency was marked by political turmoil, economic hardship, and a struggle for power with the Communist Party. Eltsin's legacy is complex; while he is celebrated for his role in promoting democracy, his time in office also saw rampant corruption and social strife.
