GKChP Couldnt Finish What It Started

They ordered tanks and troops into the capital. They isolated Soviet President Mikhail Gorbachev at his seaside villa and reportedly confiscated the key to the countrys awe-inspiring nuclear arsenal. They laid the groundwork for ousting Gorbachev and reversing his liberal policies.

What the 1991 coup plotters did not have was a clear plan of action, a set chain of command and the resolve to crush the spontaneous protests by tens of thousands of Muscovites.

And what the dozen or so Communist hard-liners behind the plot did not realize was that not only the public, but the military and they themselves had been too transformed by six years of Gorbachevs reforms to follow through with the discipline, decisiveness and cruelty needed for a coup detat. They arrested no key figures. Their attempts to limit the flow of information failed. They could not muster the manpower or wherewithal to defeat their opponents by force. Even generals questioned their commands.
