and end the cold war without bloodshed

00:00:11

but was widely despised at home has died

00:00:14

russian news agencies reported he was

00:00:17

91.

00:00:18

after decades of cold war tension and

00:00:21

confrontation gorbachev the last soviet

00:00:23

president with a distinctive port wine

00:00:25

birthmark on his head broke with the

00:00:27

past he helped to remove the iron

00:00:30

curtain that had divided europe and

00:00:32

bring about the reunification of germany

00:00:36

he struck nuclear arms deals with the

00:00:38

united states and brought the soviet

00:00:40

union closer to the west than at any

00:00:42

point since world war ii gorbachev

00:00:45

struck up a rapport with the west and

00:00:47

with ronald reagan the hawkish u.s

00:00:49

president who had called the soviet

00:00:51

union the evil empire together they

00:00:54

negotiated a landmark deal in 1987 to

00:00:57

scrap intermediate-range nuclear

missiles

00:01:01

gorbachev though was not able to prevent

00:01:04

the soviet union's collapse

00:01:06

when pro-democracy protests swept across

00:01:09

the soviet-blocked nations of communist

00:01:11

eastern europe in 1989 he refrained from

00:01:15

using force unlike previous leaders who

00:01:17

had sent tanks to crush uprisings in

00:01:19

hungary in 1956 and czechoslovakia in

00:01:23

1968

00:01:24

but those protests fueled aspirations

00:01:27

for autonomy in the 15 republics of the

00:01:30

soviet union which disintegrated over

00:01:32

the next two years in chaotic fashion

00:01:35

gorbachev became general secretary of

00:01:38

the soviet communist party in 1985 at

00:01:41

age 54.

00:01:42

he was a reformer setting out to

00:01:45

revitalize the system by introducing

00:01:47

limited political and economic freedoms

00:01:50

his policy of glasnost or free speech

00:01:54

allowed previously unthinkable criticism

00:01:56

of the party and the state but also

00:01:59

emboldened nationalists who began to

00:02:01

press for independence in the baltic

00:02:04

republics of latvia lithuania estonia

00:02:07

and elsewhere while he was celebrated in

00:02:10

the west many russians never forgave

00:02:12

gorbachev for the turbulence that his

00:02:14

reforms unleashed believing it was too

00:02:17

high a price to pay for democracy and in

00:02:20

the final months of his life gorbachev

00:02:23

has seen much of his legacy destroyed as

00:02:25

president vladimir putin's invasion of

00:02:27

ukraine has brought sanctions on moscow

00:02:30

and talks in both russia and the west of

00:02:33

a new cold war as one kremlin watcher

00:02:36

told reuters it's one of the ultimate

00:02:38

tragedies that none of the values that

00:02:41

gorbachev ultimately came to embrace

00:02:43

have been preserved by the leaders of
