The misplaced adulation Gorbachev received and his current standing also draws proper respect away from Boris Yeltsin, who, for all his flaws as a statesman and person, was a democratic believer and fighter in his heart at key moments in history. — PolitiTweet.org

I’ll have a piece on Gorbachev soon, but this paragraph from Winter Is Coming sums up my thoughts. He was obliged to embark on perestroika as a last gasp to save the USSR and socialism. Gorbachev became an accidental hero in the West for failing. https://t.co/25zKo9vBmE — PolitiTweet.org

Gorbachev endorsed Putin for a decade, and then his critiques of Putin’s destruction of democracy in Russia came well after the point when his voice might have made a difference in drawing international attention. — PolitiTweet.org
