A leader is ranked on one thing: whether his country benefited from his rule.

Did Gorbachev make the USSR/Russia stronger? No.
Did he make it richer? No.

He may have made the world a better place, but countries are like coaches: what matters are titles, not fair play awards.

Gorby the Great

He made the Communist party stronger tho and I suggest he saved Russia from absolute disembowellment.
They were in a situation where they had to take the hit to survive at all, so he didnt have that many choices really. they needed time , he got them that.

Man I feel bad for him. What a crap job he had : (

Gorbachev was one of the greatest men of our time. He put international law, basic humanity, and civilized behavior before the demands of brute power.

we need more global leaders of his calibre... but weare only getting mcleaders, puppets

feel ripped off?

I like PUtain's manly ways!
