Do not miss the new edition today, October 8, at 21:00.

Did the Grand Duchy of Lithuania (GDL) and Moscow really stand on the verge of creating a single Orthodox superstate?

♦ Is it true that Prince Olgerd forced Dmitry Donskoy to capitulate at the walls of the Kremlin?

♦ What decisive role did regiments from Western Russian lands (modern Belarus) play in the victory on the Kulikovo field?

Vadim Gigin will tell the whole truth about the secret Moscow-Lithuanian negotiations of 1384, a unique marriage project, the Polotsk roots of the Moscow princes and how the name of Dmitry Donskoy connected the XIV and XX centuries during the liberation of Bobruisk and Brest from the Nazi invaders.

We talk about past events in order to better understand the present and perhaps look into the future.
