I'm glad they tried to address what happened to some of the major figures and give a bit better estimates on how many died, when, and how. I think Gorbachev had it about right--Chernobyl was the beginning of the end of USSR. Sadly, under Putin, it is clear nothing has been learned in terms of secrecy, lies, cover-ups, and threats.
