The fifth "Gensec" of the world
"Like every revolution, perestroika was between two boundaries of one state to hold. To appease the changes Gorbachev began perestroika its use as an international campaign, without moving home. It 's time of the Chernobyl accident, which the biography does not mention, almost nothing. The exploration of the outside world begins. Gorbachev said that he did not know that a credit card, if the public had not noticed, saw RaisaBuy earrings. To export its ideas in the Western world, has published his book entitled perestroika.
But with this new more friendly face of the Soviet Union, the dilemma is raised: the health of the Soviet Union's existence was based in part on his eternal enemy (the capitalist world outside). The problem was, as against freedom of choice that was granted in Eastern European countries to act?
Meanwhile, had the problem of "old thinking" the war in Afghanistan and resolve theEuro-missiles that American missiles had caused.
It 's the time of Star Wars and Gorbachev surprised the United States, announcing a 50% reduction of missiles in Reykjavik. A year later, when Reagan said in Washington, he lacked Reykjavík, Raisa, who remembers thinking that "women were accepted there in Reykjavik."
But as international activities within the problems has been extended to solve ...
The sixth is the only party that does not betray me
"InSpring of 1988, the first cracks in the monolithic facade of the Politburo. "Someone had discovered that Marx was against private property, but as this g. the Politburo was to communicate? Was time for the party and was separated from the administration and economic governance should find its own goal. In addition to feast we have no other government bodies.
The party was divided between red and white roses, supports the various ideas.
"The change was madeimpossible, by the people, but the roles they performed. "And Gorbachev can not replace the old clan Brezhnev.
Looking back, Gorbachev acknowledged that Yeltsin was one of his biggest mistakes, one of the "gravedigger of the Year 1991". He should have sent him as ambassador to some foreign country. But Yeltsin was an required. And the political reforms that were initiated could not be stopped. It was clear that those who have betrayed the Communist Party (CPU) and its lack ofSupport Gorbachev Gorbachev, or limiting the powers of the CPU.
As the event that everything has changed, the coup attempt of August 1991. Gorbachev resigned after he realized that "the party does not condemn the coup.
When asked why Stalin, the Soviet Constitution provided that a separate State of the Union, because inspire separatist ideas that could lead to a disintegration of the country? He replied that our party is unique and therefore we have, so it neverCould happen.
Seventh store or dissolve
Will be increasingly difficult to get and in the North, starting with the Baltic states of Lithuania and South in 'the Caucasus region, with different temperaments, but with similar goals: independence.
In June 1990, a time when the popularity has increased by Yeltsin to take his resignation from the party makes. Gorbachev treaty economic sanctions against the rebel state, but also under the pressure of externalWorld, never use them to power cord.
Grachov writes in this context: it is hard to believe that someone set up along the problem of life, but the harder it is to let them go, as his condemnation of trade unionists ... "Understanding is possible that the fall of the Berlin Wall serious cracks in the wall of the Kremlin would bring. Gorbachev dreamed of a Union of the Confederation of States that would benefit from historical ties with Russia. It was a" homo Sovieticus "Who wanted to reform itsCountry as a European style of the United States? Some say that his dream could be realized, but nobody could say what would be the course of events, without the coup in 1991, be.

It 's also a chapter in which the personality behind Gorbachev is detailed.People more or less close to him, a portrait of his character that he is "impulsive to some," "hard work, always in the office till late" for others. It is not a conceptual thinker, someone who forces, not someone who had a firm goal in mind in motion. "The change was more important than the destination."
And the meaning of words. The action was not the only thing that counts, "the vibration of words." And often waited too long, things would only patient to go alone ... And areturned to him was that he had real federated eighth (the people in the modern sense of a NetWorker) attached. And on "Cherchez la femme." The woman behind the man, he was moved, idealism and unattainable targets?
