Manage episode 446625360 series 2850631
In our second part of our look at both the fall of the Soviet Union and of its final leader Mikhail Gorbachev, we look back at his life and his career. we listen to the man himself and hear his thoughts after the dissolution of the Soviet Union had occurred.
We will also examine one of the ultimate of ironies for this historic figure of the 20th century. By the time of his death at age 91, Mikhail Gorbachev, had become a loved and admired figure around the world, and yet he was shunned in his own country. The new leader of Russia said of the demise of the Soviet Union "It was the worst catastrophe of the 20th Century"
Vladimir Putin, while sending condolences to the Gorbachev family and visiting the wake of the last Soviet Union, sent his regrets that he was to busy to attend the funeral of the last President of the Soviet Union and a giant in the history of the world, Mikhail Gorbachev.
