The '''Russian Power Struggle of 1973-1978''', also known as the ''Interim Period'', was a significant period in the history of the [[Russia|Russian National Republic]], marked by political instability and a dramatic and unexpected shift in power. The crisis began with the orchestrated arrest of Chairman [[Ilya Kiselev]] and other officials during the "''Great Bureaucratic Cleansing''" in 1973 and ended with the first free elections in Russia in 1978, which led to the rise of opposition leader [[Sergey Gromov]]. |
