- Mikhail Gorbachev, the former Soviet leader who brought the Cold War to a peaceful end, has died aged 91.
Mr Gorbachev, who took power in 1985, opened up the Soviet Union to the world and introduced a set of reforms at home.
But he was unable to prevent the slow collapse of the Soviet Union, from which modern Russia emerged.
Tributes have been paid worldwide, with UN chief António Guterres saying he "changed the course of history". US President Joe Biden called him a "rare leader".
However, many Russians never forgave their former leader for the turmoil that followed the collapse of the USSR.

Umm
The USSR was founded in 1922, Mikhail Gorbachev died in 2022.
The USSR collapsed in 1991, Mikhail Gorbachev dies at age 91.
R.I.P. Mikhail Gorbachev
2 March 1931 - 30 August 2022
A true hero. he gave up his own power and avoided major bloodshed.
Maybye it was just because he realised the game was lost but still, he could like many leaders have clinged on to power way to long with many deaths as the result....
Ah sure "avoided". He can burn in hell. With the best regards from Lithuania.

Ah, of course those two go together. Though the imperialist monarch is far worse
91 years is a pretty good age. Disappointing that so few journalists seem to have interviewed him and that he wasn't interviewed about circumstances surrounding the fall of the Berlin wall, the discussions regarding NATO and the Warsaw Pact and what exactly was agreed in particularly with regard to the commitment not to move NATO one inch east
While he was not popular at home I think in another generation or two, the Russian people will realize his true value.

truely amazing that Gorbachev unintentionally began an era of oligarchy and economic collapse
@@pashnyovv What is the point of this comment? These didn't take place in Russia and these conflicts were not orchestrated by Gorbachev. It took place during the dissolution of the Soviet Union, when Gorbachev was dealing with issues in Russia.
I don’t consider him to be the last leader of Soviet Union. I think he was the first democratic leader of modern Russia.
Sadly democratic Russia didn't last long.
Shouldn't you guys be hating Gorbachev, because he was a Soviet?

Kinda coincidental that the Soviet Union dissolved in 1991 and he passed away at the age of 91
That’s a coincidence, not irony
@@sunnex474 right thanks for telling me. I get the two mixed up

1991 was a pivotal year for most of us who watch this video: Fall of the Berlin Wall; First Gulf War; end of the USSR -- three realities that were beyond imagination even one year prior .... Personally, I'm grateful to have witnessed these events myself.
Wasn’t this the same guy who said he was opposed to war? Something doesn’t feel right…
Of the dead, say nothing but good.
Always had a soft spot for Gorby! He was a brilliant forward thinking leader, and much needed for the Peace of the World!!!
RIP President Gorbachev 💜
peace solely for USA right? after the collapse of the ussr did you know how terrible the situation was back in Russia, crimes, unrest, and protests, that's what you all turned to neglect
@@minzheli6417 At least he tried. He took the risk and like all risks there is a possibility for things to work against you rather than for you. And that was just sad.
Rip Gorbachev you will be missed. I wanted to meet him in person and talk about the Cold War and etc.
Maybe the real Soviet Union was the friends we made along the way
Can't believe more people are saddened about his death around the world than most Russians!! Including Putin. Rip Gorbachev. You made Russia have a different identity ( for a bit) and give USSR states a choice for freedom
the reason he was popular is because he helped nato/us to disjoint USSR and let their firmidable enemy down. no wonder westerner love him.
That’s because you’re not Russian and are prone to lies
We salute to you Pres.Gorbachev! Eternal rest grant unto him oh Lord & let perpetual light shine upon him! Please pray for peace in Russia & the whole world. Amen
Lol, why should we grieve that this lousy jackal traitor died? In Russia, this is a holiday) And yes, if you don’t understand, they blame him not for the fact that the USSR fell apart, it’s obvious to everyone that communism is a dead-end path, an unrealizable utopia, something like Christianity. But what he did he gave away the territories that our ancestors conquered for 1000 years without any compensation, moreover, he robbed his people when Russia took on the debts of other 14 countries. He gave Germany without compensation without written guarantees that NATO would not expand. So do not be surprised that he we all curse and hated traitor
Rip gorbachev he was great
The way the BBC is reporting about this guy has me asking questions
Probably telling us he's the best leader the soviets ever had for collapsing it. Classic Western media bs.
What questions?
He is abused in ruining the one of the greatest country in the world!
BBC reports is from prospect of western countries. They have no idea which crimes this bast*rd has commited against own citiziens.
What questions I'm intrigued..
where are the comments?
Best Russian leader ever. Made the country and it's people more accessible. Sad loss great Man.

During Gorbachev's time, the Kremlin bloodily suppressed protests in the Soviet Union itself, including April 9, 1989 in Tbilisi.

He was still the leader of the USSR... every other soviet leader would have done much, much more worse things.

Ah I see... When he agreed with the West, he was a "visionary". When he did not agree with the West, he was "naive".

What happened in world 🌎
Wait he died at 91 the USSR Collapse in 1991 so did the collapse make him died at 91?
No
The dead come to everybody us through a illness, but not to everybody the same. Some people is passing away very hard at great pains, for some very easy. For majority when they are yet to yang to die, but a such age as Gorbachev and others are very little. Rest in peace Mr. Mikhail Sergeevuch you ended the cold war and opened the freedom to the believers that they can come to churches freely, without fear of atheist KGB-ist, that they fight to destroy the faith in God. And to everybody become communist/atheist and worship to Comm.Party and to Lenin their idol god.
Hero? How many movies did he act

Collapse of Soviet union is 1991 he die in 91 Years old

Peace ✌️
Old leaders have to go, they are trying so hard to bring this world to the end
He tried, and he succeeded - he was so far ahead of his time - Russia will remember him, when they will see him for his humanity, and his forsight - Russia will pay and suffer what he tried to avoid. But why do we need to but head, when we try to talk about peace in the middle of a war. Not forgiving is not a christian nor a smart thing to do.
He was a traitor who plunged russia into anarchy and then left to live in germany
Hope he goes to the ninth circle of hell,reserved for traitors
How would the Bon Jovi band reacted this?

We have great respect for him in Britain as he tried to build new bridges of peace with the West. Is a sad day. I think Putin could learn a great deal from him
Putin to learned from him??? 😳 Nato expended 3 times toward east and made russian people unsecured and you said Putin to learn about the peace from Gorby??? Are you normal???
Tribute to comrade . His greater mistake was his signature on dissolution of soviet union
❤❤
knock knock knock knock.. did somebody say, birthmarks?
I respect the man, but I think the reason he gradually became more supportive of Putin is either he knew he would be put down if he said anything critical of him, or maybe his view of Putin really just softened.
Putin said; what did Gorbachev was good, but his wishes was that Russia to be in good relations and friendly with West and USA and this was bad, for this, he is a traitor. This stance is a satanic stance, because the Gospel says Romans 12:18; If it is possible, as far as it depends on you, live at peace with everyone.
Taking this opportunity, I compare the process of radical opening led by M. Gorbachev with the timid and moderate opening led by N. Khrushchev. That is why, while Khrushchev's opening is historically defined as a de-Stalinization, Gorbachev's would have implied - for me - a kind of "de-Leninization" of the Soviet state, to the point where the U.S.S.R (created by Lenin) ceased to exist.
Unfortunately, the rapprochement between Moscow and Washington that began in the time of Reagan and Gorbachev suffered a gradual setback after the Clinton administration.
