Description

By 1989, his liberal policies of perestroika and glasnost had permanently transformed Soviet Communism, and had made enemies of radicals on the right and left. By 1990 he, more than anyone else, had ended the Cold War, and in 1991, after barely escapingfrom a coup attempt, he unintentionally presided over the collapse of the Soviet Union he had tried to save.
