    Former Soviet leader Mikhail Gorbachev dies at 91

    August 31, 2022

    At the age of 91, Mikhail Gorbachev, the man who ended the Cold War without bloodshed but failed to prevent the collapse of the Soviet Union, has passed away, according to hospital officials in Moscow. Gorbachev, the last Soviet president, removed the Iron Curtain that had divided Europe since World War Two and brought about the reunification of Germany through arms reduction deals with the United States.

    Former Soviet leader Mikhail Gorbachev dies at 91The Soviet Union fell apart as a result of his internal reforms, a moment President Vladimir Putin called the “greatest geopolitical catastrophe” of the twentieth century. “Mikhail Gorbachev passed away tonight after a protracted illness,” said the Central Clinical Hospital of Russia. Putin expressed “his deepest condolences”, Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov told Interfax. “He will send a telegram of condolence to his family and friends tomorrow,” he said.

    As reported by news agencies, Putin pledged to reverse the Soviet Union’s disintegration if he had the ability. There was a rush to pay tribute from world leaders. Gorbachev, who was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize in 1990, had paved the way for a free Europe, said Ursula von der Leyen, chair of the European Commission. According to Tass, he will be buried in Moscow’s Novodevichy Cemetery next to his wife Raisa, who passed away in 1999.
