"The West thinks it won the Cold War. That is arrogance."
"The West is trying to impose its own model of development on us. But we have our own path."
"I don't think there's anything more important than a good laugh, and I don't think I've ever been with a group of people who couldn't find something to laugh about."
"I am not a dictator. I am a democrat."
"The cold war is over. Let us build a new world."
About Mikhail Gorbachev (1931-2022)
Final General Secretary of the Soviet Union whose glasnost and perestroika reforms led to the USSR's dissolution and the end of the Cold War. Closely associated with Boris Yeltsin (his domestic rival and successor as Russian leader) and Ronald Reagan (Cold War counterpart and arms-control partner). For an intellectual contrast, see Vladimir Putin, Russian president (2000-2008, 2012-) — Putin has publicly called the Soviet collapse 'the greatest geopolitical catastrophe of the 20th century' — Gorbachev's signature achievement. Putin's two-decade political project has been organized around reversing Gorbachev's liberalization.
