+Dreamhackian _ Did he "scare" them into it or give them "weapons" for the hostages? Google "Iran Contra". As I said earlier, you are a "nightmare". Side note, you are really bad at "basic arithmetic" and "facts".
Well, yes. When Gorbachev made the decision to refuse to continue to prop up the communist regimes in eastern Europe with military force that was the beginning of the end for them. Mind you, that decision was made prior to Reagan giving this speech, which of course the United States was aware of. Reagan was just adding momentum to a process already under way.
Jason S. Yes but our arms build-up expedited the fall of the USSR, While it would have happened eventually,Gorbacav went to his cabinet and told them that an arms race with the US would collapse our economy for sure and this is what got them moving..Keep in mind that Russia was invading or occupying territories right up thru 1980 including most all of Eastern Europe. This stopped with the massive defense buildup in the west.
Yes I agree, to a point. During the arms race with the United States the USSR suffered from the guns and butter ptoblem, as in it ultimately had to decide whether to arm itself or feed its people. This challenge was particular to the Soviet Union's command style economy in which there was no room for the free market to benefit from (and create wealth with) government defense contracts. While the United States government certainly went into massive debt as a result of Reagan's defense spending during the arms race with the Soviet Union, it never faced the problem of the economy becoming bankrupted as a whole like they did in the USSR. Certainly Reagan's adminstration knew about the economic pressures that increased defense spending put on the former Soviet Union, but up until then all previous administrations, as well as the CIA, didn't understand the extent that the Soviet economy was crumbling.
Gorbachev did approve Helmut Kohl of the reuniting of the East and West. Without his approval it would not have been possible before the total collapse of USSR. Do you really think he did nothing on tearing down the wall???
Yes I don't like Reagan, but compared to the orange clown we have in office... He is an angel. BTW, imagine if Trump was in charge during the Cuban missile crisis. We wouldn't have jobs. We would all be dead in nuclear holocaust.

I’m an American that was held in Hohenschönhausen from 1979 to the fall of the Berlin Wall in 1989. My release wouldn’t have been possible without President Reagan. 🥺
This right here is one of the greatest speeches of all time. Reagan knew the teardown of the wall would put an end to the soviet union, decades of tension and uncertainty, an ongoing feud that dates back to the start of WW1. The end of everything and the rise of a great American superpower... Love or hate reagan... This was one of the greatest speech of all time.

ExtremeCynic Eh, definitely not the greatest, I even pity him most times. But he's not the worst too. I was relatively addressing his action to bring an end to the cold war by improving American-Soviet relations. He is still garbage at events in the middle east. Just like someone.
DOUG HEINS Without the Marshall plan Europe would never have managed to recover from the war as well as it did. Many countries would probably be very instable and the Soviet Union would most likely have been able to further spread their influence even to western Europe.
KyleBuschPackFan You do know he wanted to use nuclear bombs on innocent people as well as combatants. And that would have started a nuclear war. In turn we would all be dead due to Mutually Assured destruction.
Mimi Luv one is to control the flow of people into the country (not stopping immigration) and the other was built to trap people on one side of a city and prevent them from leaving
No one else even thought to do it or tried to do it or had the courage to do it. It’s was his calling and his alone. Only he had such a great love of freedom so as to pull it off. A divine moment from a divine Creator to speak divine words for the world to hear, daring any to contradict them. It didn’t take long, but it’s effect continues today and will forever. Freedom has no walls, no closed, guarded gates. It is open for all to experience it as long no one breaches its mutual trust between its partakes and is revered and protected by all who believe in and love Her. Freedom isn’t free. May all be willing to give their all to keep Her alive, well, thriving and moving forward into the future. 👏💪🇺🇸❤️‼️
I think at that time most of Europe (except Thatcher) were seriously doubting Reagan intentions since his backers were profitting the most from the cold war. But in hindsight it was a great speech and it probably helped Gorbachev making one of is most courageous decisions of his autharian reign : No support from Soviet millitary support for the faltering Eastern Europe goverments to strike down revolts which led eventually to the teardown of the wall and the DDR but not forget also to the collapsing of the Soviet union where mr Gorbachev had lot less glorious role because there he did order to strike down the revolts violently.
The Berlin Wall was a national monument where it was not only a historical landmark for the American presidential speeches,tourism and visitation,but this is a reminder to the approaching generations that will read about this siting in the future,watch documentaries on it in the future,parents will take they're infants to watch it
All these people using Reagan to bash trump you do know that trump and Reagan knew each other and Reagan showed no hate towards trump unlike you people who bash trump.
What we need is a new Ronald Reagan! Hopefully after this President leaves office (hopefully not messing up the USA too badly) we WILL have a new Reagan! I remember the late 80's when Reagan was President. The USA was on the top of the world. Every business was blooming. My own family was well off!! I was just a baby (born in 1985) but it was a great time!!

Again, this is the WORST Administration we've had, the Obamacare is NOT working as well among other issues Obama seems to be ignoring !!! I think Carter/Obama are the worst Presidents we had --- PRESIDENT RONALD REAGAN - YOU WILL NEVER BE FORGOTTEN AND FOREVER BE IN MY HEART- GOD BLESS YOU (yes I said it)!
Your favorite President, well that shows one thing; your lack of a grasp on history.
Sooo, 8 years later, have you grown up girl? Or are you afraid to even read what you wrote?
Ok so basically you’re spewing out a useless rant and racism near the end. (Kool aid.) good to know.
Well your dad has been telling you some things hasn’t he?
Ronald Reagan was a truly great man. Unlike the little weasel in the White House today.
NGProductions 706 A multibillionaire who is bringing America out of debt? I guess it’s a coincidence that companies are coming back to America, and the African American unemployment rate is lower than ever. But that’s all because of Obama I guess, one year later and somehow he’s still making moves
Mastergriefs. I am glad trump is president, however this was posted 3 years ago. Lol!
Banana Joe lol I realized, I was talking to the person who replied to you.
Skiddie80 where the proof at
ExtremeCynic Eh, definitely not the greatest, I even pity him most times. But he's not the worst too. I was relatively addressing his action to bring an end to the cold war by improving American-Soviet relations. He is still garbage at events in the middle east. Just like someone.
Holy hell he was so well spoken.
Reagan smash!
REAGAN SMASH!
***** Reagan sleepy!
That's just Reagan, just leave him alone, he'll tire himself out.
Leave Reagen to have sex whenever he feels like it, dont force him
President Reagan was courageous, decent and a True Leader. A True American!!! He did Great things and is still loved by the American People.
a real true president!! one who is a true leader. so far no other has surpassed anything that he has done
greatest US presidnt since Eisenhouer n Truman...
DOUG HEINS Without the Marshall plan Europe would never have managed to recover from the war as well as it did. Many countries would probably be very instable and the Soviet Union would most likely have been able to further spread their influence even to western Europe.
1955porsche kennedy is better i think
Truman was an idiot. He coulda won the Korean War if he would have just let MacArthur do his fucking job.
KyleBuschPackFan You do know he wanted to use nuclear bombs on innocent people as well as combatants. And that would have started a nuclear war. In turn we would all be dead due to Mutually Assured destruction.
Colton Fields The Soviets were "grieving" over Stalin; they were barely a threat.
Gives me goosebumps every time
Famous speech of president Reagan✌
My hero.
The best ever USA president
What a legend this man was
You cut out the iconic “ Mr Gorbachev, Tear down this wall!”.
You are the Devil.
I'm not a big Reagan fan, but that man sure knew how to give a speech. This one and the speech about the Challenger loss, which still gives me chills.
thank you Ronald Reagan for this you're number 1
greetings and much love from germany♥️🇺🇸
A true American hero here.
What an amazing Leader. God rest his Soul.
Greatest American of the 20th century
HUU
That would actually be Martin Luther King Jr
GREATEST!!! president in my lifetime!!!
Ronald Reagan made America great again.
We will NEVER forgot what he did for Germany. R.I.P. Mr. President.
(Sorry for my bad English)
forget not forgot😅😅😅
God bless you Ronnie! America needs you today!
One said tear down the wall, now another is saying build d wall. What a wisdom from Ronald that money cannot buy.
Mimi Luv one is to control the flow of people into the country (not stopping immigration) and the other was built to trap people on one side of a city and prevent them from leaving
Regan: Tear Down This Wall
Trump: Build the Wall
Why are you so fucking illiterate
@@probably9085 It's a joke calm down
Liberals trying hard and failing to understand today's politics
@@alexiarai955 not a good one
@@Gia1911Logous It's still a joke not to be taken seriously
Can you imagine a president on either side nowadays crediting a past president from a different party? The division is sickening now adays.
Greatest President of my lifetime.
He was a great man. He was a great President!
Gina O'Neil. Yes! So GLAD that wall came down too!!!
Love this speech.
No one else even thought to do it or tried to do it or had the courage to do it. It’s was his calling and his alone. Only he had such a great love of freedom so as to pull it off. A divine moment from a divine Creator to speak divine words for the world to hear, daring any to contradict them. It didn’t take long, but it’s effect continues today and will forever. Freedom has no walls, no closed, guarded gates. It is open for all to experience it as long no one breaches its mutual trust between its partakes and is revered and protected by all who believe in and love Her. Freedom isn’t free. May all be willing to give their all to keep Her alive, well, thriving and moving forward into the future. 👏💪🇺🇸❤️‼️
This video is useless now. It cuts off before he even says the iconic line
Reagan!! Love this guy, the world miss him too much
I think at that time most of Europe (except Thatcher) were seriously doubting Reagan intentions since his backers were profitting the most from the cold war. But in hindsight it was a great speech and it probably helped Gorbachev making one of is most courageous decisions of his autharian reign : No support from Soviet millitary support for the faltering Eastern Europe goverments to strike down revolts which led eventually to the teardown of the wall and the DDR but not forget also to the collapsing of the Soviet union where mr Gorbachev had lot less glorious role because there he did order to strike down the revolts violently.
Probably the greatest Presidential speech in history, alongside Gettysburg.
They're listening to the wind of change.
Really worried about the 784 people who downvoted this video.
Eastern Europe will never forget you, we will always be grateful to you for overthrowing the fucking USSR...
The Berlin Wall was a national monument where it was not only a historical landmark for the American presidential speeches,tourism and visitation,but this is a reminder to the approaching generations that will read about this siting in the future,watch documentaries on it in the future,parents will take they're infants to watch it
Yall remember when I did this?
WE CHOOSE TO GO TO THE MOON NOT BECUASE IT IS EASY, BUT BECAUSE IT IS HARD!
I love how the right and left can unite over how badass Reagan was.
Long live freedom!
Simply one of the best we have ever had 🎉
All these people using Reagan to bash trump you do know that trump and Reagan knew each other and Reagan showed no hate towards trump unlike you people who bash trump.
flying corsair vengeance
All these people bashing people for having an opinion you do know that your opinion is not the only one here and you show hate toward other opinions.
Prob cause reagan was dead before trump ran for president
WHAT YOU CAME FOR ( is not in this video , the video cuts off, before Reagan says tear down the wall )
Great president, I'm proud to be born in 1989!
What we need is a new Ronald Reagan! Hopefully after this President leaves office (hopefully not messing up the USA too badly) we WILL have a new Reagan! I remember the late 80's when Reagan was President. The USA was on the top of the world. Every business was blooming. My own family was well off!! I was just a baby (born in 1985) but it was a great time!!
CavalierPrincipessa. You bet it was a great time!
Great speech 😊,from the heart of many people, thanks Present Reagan
Ich hab noch einen Koffer in Berlin... .hab ich damals live im Fernsehen gesehn und erinner mich wie heute noch dran
toller Präsident..
What the hell? Includes "tear down this wall" in quotes in the title and cuts off the speech before it happens. That is 100% whacked.
One of the greatest presidents ever
