We have all you need, tovarisch. The queue and deficit were ones of the features of the Soviet Union especially they were appreciable in the last period of USSR’ existence. As you know in Moscow there were The Olympic Games in 1980. And here is one anecdote about this time. All workers of the capital stores were thoroughly instructed that we have any kinds of goods. It was banned to say to foreign costumers that something isn’t in the sales outlets. One foreign man come in the Moscow’s department store and asked a seller to show some gloves. - What kind of gloves do you need, tovarisch? Woollen, leather of maybe rag ones? - Leather, please. - Are you going to wear it with cloak, jacket, topcoat or maybe… - With cloak. - Please, bring your cloak, and we can choose the gloves to match it. And another foreign man told him frantically: - Don’t believe them. I have brought them photos of my toilet bowl, I have showed them my bottom… But I still can’t buy tissue!

Hi there   Данияр:

 

 

 

-------------------

 

We have all you need, tovarisch. [I am not familiar with the term. Who is "tovarisch"?]

 

The queue and deficit were  features of the Soviet Union.

They were  especially appreciable [or significant]

 in the last period of USSR’ existence.

 

----- As you know in Moscow there were The Olympic Games in 1980.

 

 And here is one anecdote about this time. [Drop the "and".  Conjunctions are used to join two separate sentences to make a "compound" sentences.  Avoid starting sentences  with "and".]

 

.
All workers of the capital stores were thoroughly instructed that we have any kinds of goods.  [Perhaps it would be better to write "all kinds of goods"?  "Any" is not a specific term at all.]

 

 It was banned [or forbidden]  to say to foreign costumers that something isn’t in the sales outlets.
One foreign man come  [came...past tense]  in  Moscow’s department store and asked a seller to show some gloves.

.

 


Q: (for question) "What kind of gloves do you need, tovarisch? Woollen, leather of maybe rag ones?"

   A very good  composition, and absolutely hilarious at the conclusion. 

Most excellent account  of the policy!     Please continue with  your efforts. This was well worth the effort!---Warm Regards,  Bruce
