Man you can really see in Gorbachev’s eyes that he is a good man, like a guy who really wanted peace and to sort things out correctly. Compare it to previous soviet leaders and you can see the difference
Gorbachev is not a popular man in current-day Russia. They look upon him as the man who sold them out. Prior to the dissolution of the USSR, the people lived pretty well. Once it collapsed, the people really suffered (for many, to this day). I think Gorbachev knew during this meeting that his empire was in trouble. It came to a point where Gorbachev asked the US and Western Europe for financial assistance. They turned him down, and the rest is history. Socialism/Communism will *always* end in this manner. It was not his fault. He just happened to have been the guy when it ultimately happened.
@@pittmanfh There has been no socialism in the USSR since 1961, when a political counter-revolution took place and the *dictatorship of the proletariat* was thrown out of the Communist Party program. 1961-1991 is a transitional period from socialism to capitalism. Your statement that socialism always ends with a lack of money is sheer nonsense. The USSR fell into a hole in debt already under Gorbachev.
Gorbachev's mistake was that he allowed the collapse of the USSR. because of this, a lot of wars happened on the territory of the USSR countries: the Chechen wars, Georgia, Abkhazia, Armenia and Azerbaijan, Ukraine ...

you just noticed that Gorbachev is scared !! my opinion is that Gorbachev is an agent of the CIA and a traitor to the homeland! Gorbachev destroyed Russia, he destroyed the balance of power in the world.
Wow what a time that must have been. A President who was able to actually complete a sentence, loved his country, and was competent at his job. And a Russian leader that wasn't an egotistical maniac who uses the military to beat down his neighbors. Certainly seemed like a much better time to be alive than now.
One can only imagine what even Gorbachev must have been thinking though when the Chinese military unleashed hell on Tiananmen Square. The fact that we continue to work with that barbaric regime is enough to make me almost nauseous. Since Mao walked into Beijing in '49, those monsters have sunk to levels even the Soviets never really went apart from maybe Stalin.
RIP Gorbachev for being the greatest leader of the Cold War period. He knew what needed to be done in order to save lives and bring upon true peace. I wish Russia had not lost their way starting with Yeltsin. I think the Russian Federation would have a different history if Gorbachev would have been allowed to remain in power.
I couldn't help but wonder what would happen if either Reagan or Gorbachev had reached out and slapped the other across the face. For real, what would the immediate and longer term effects from that be? What would play out?
probably not much, the secret service or kgb would step in, by that time the other person would already have slapped him back (although I doubt any would actually do that). It wouldn’t resorted into a fight as the man were prophet competent enough to realize that would have gained them nothing, the attacker would apologize, and it wouldn’t have any excepts, not in short terms nor in long terms.
I was wondering something like that but more like Ronnie lifting a leg and just letting one rip in that leather chair. No interpretation needed for that I don’t suppose.
Sri Chinmoy, President Gorbachev's dear "brother-friend" wrote many lofty books about his dear friend. Here are a few quotes: "God's Hands smilingly and proudly are shaping the world through the hands of His beloved son, Mikhail Gorbachev". "President Gorbachev: A man in a million, a heart in a billion, a soul in a TRILLION," "En route to humanity's heart-home he surmounted unsurmountable obstacles." "The test of this earth-planet is to realise who truly President Gorbachev is." "No man of integrity will dare to devalue him - his world-improvement-contributions."
Gorby is a true hero to prevent an another mushroom clouds, but it's unfortunate that his reforming agendas for the internal issu was at the wrong time which had caused the dissolution of the Soviet
@Burak Tepe, well that is just not accurate. A. Venezuela is socialist in the same way that Germany and Denmark are socialist. B. Cuba is actually doing ok which is impressive seeing as how many sanctions there are on them. C. Socialism doesn’t inevitably lead to economic collapse.
not to judge a book by its cover, but I could perhaps tell that Gorbachev's a kind and gentle guy when I look at him - his eyes, his gesture, etc. There's something very gentle and humane about him that I can't tell. I study Cold War History and it's amazing to know that he always refused (many times) to intervention in other countries as he wanted them to decide their own fate. May God be with him. He's still alive today in 2022. Thank you for your work and we will forever appreciate you.
when we did what we wanted. Girls were girls and men were men. Mr we could use a man like Ronald Reagan again. Didn't need no welfare stamps. Everybody pulled his weight. Those were the days
A series of meetings that started what people like me in college during those days thought was an era of unlimited optimism globally but others saw in many different ways
I'll tell you that Gorbachev is an evil genius product of the CIA, the Western world greatly overestimates him. what Gorbachev did, he destroyed his country. who is Gorbachev he was originally a peasant son of a peasant. Such stupidity was possible only under the Communist Party, so that the son of a peasant could lead the country. In your country, is it possible that a country could be led by a peasant? Do you have such in history? I do not know.
@Prestallar under the Soviet Union, my mother and grandmother were in prison. In 1978, I also had problems from the Soviet government. what are you interested in?
@@Bob31415 In 1958, my grandmother and mother were arrested in the city of Tambov for their Christian beliefs, and the mother's younger sister was sent to an orphanage. My mother was 18 when she was imprisoned for 5 years, and my grandmother was 7 years old. In 1978, a schoolteacher found out that I was from a religious family and was furious. The school teacher gathered the communists, and they came to our house, behaved arrogantly, it was the time of the communist party, took icons, church books, asked uncomfortable questions. A few days later, late in the evening, police officers came to us in a truck, put me and my mother in the back and took us to the police station. High-ranking police officers were taken to a large hall, and there we were interrogated by the school administration, I was 8 years old then, and my mother was 38 years old. I will go to the second year, then they will be taken to a boarding school. we decided to be together. then, when I was in school, and this was the time of the communists, I had to avoid joining children's communist organizations, and in October I had to go to the pioneers. I remember how I hid a pioneer tie from my mother, it was always wrinkled, and the teachers scolded me for the wrinkled tie. I did not join the Komsomol because I considered myself already independent. while studying at school, the communists turned me against the children, I defended myself and fought with those who tried to humiliate me
@@Bob31415 Part 2 After school he entered the pedagogical school. I studied to be a teacher of drawing and painting. It was the time of Gorbachev, no one else oppressed me for religious reasons. then it was time to go to the army, my mother said that demons cannot be served, and there is no law in the army. And again they were nervous, they did not serve in the army. And then the country under the leadership of Gorbachev was devastated by people, as if they had been untied, it was a terrible time. yes, if interested, I can tell you how the people of Russia lived and how they survived and what now awaits Russia and the Russian people

Gorbachev was once a very handsome man!
Sometimes there’s something really good that can happen when two heads of state meet _in person._ What happened here was God’s magic. 💛🙏🏽
Im not Russian but Gorbachev was a good special man !so pr Reagan. God bless both of them.
I had hated USSR very much when I was high school days.
But I have studied USSR a little when I was Korea University student days.
I studied Mr. Gorbachev's University days a little. He studied Latin language. I will !
