June 20, 1996: Hounded by the KGB - Luba Brezhnev
Luba Brezhnev recounts her life inside the Soviet ruling family and her claim that KGB pressure followed her attempts to speak independently.
She describes surveillance, intimidation, restricted movement, and the burden of carrying a famous name during and after the Soviet period. Art Bell asks how political power operated at a personal level and what changed when the system that protected and pursued her began to collapse.
