Mikhail Gorbachev, the last leader of the Soviet Union, has died at the age of 92, ending the Cold War without bloodshed.
According to the report of Reuters, a foreign news agency published in the Dawn newspaper, Gorbachev played an important role in ending the division of Europe after the Second World War, along with the unification of Germany, and with the fake arms reduction agreement with the United States. Also partnered with western powers.
In 1985, at the age of 54, he became the General Secretary of the Soviet Communist Party. He introduced a policy of limited political and economic freedom to restore the system, but his reforms could not be implemented.
Mikhail Gorbachev introduced another policy called ‘glasnost’, or ‘freedom of expression’, which was intended to allow criticism of the party and the state, but it also encouraged nationalists to invade Latvia, Lithuania and Estonia and Baltic republics can press for independence.
Russian citizens never forgave Gorbachev for the situation caused by his policies, which resulted in a gradual decline in living standards and a heavy price for democracy.
