Mikhail Sergeyevich Gorbachev While Gorbachev was president of the Soviet Union he launched several initiatives that helped improve the East-West relations. He also helped reformed the Soviet Union politically and economically. Gorbachev was born into a peasant family and he studied law at Moscow University. Gorbachev became an active member of the Communist Party while still at the university. He was soon an official of Komsomol, the communist youth league, in Stavropol. Gorbachev made a name for himself boosting agricultural output and came to the attention of Mikhail Suslov, the head of party ideology under Leonid Brezhnex, and KGB chief Yuri Andropov. Gorbachev and Andropov remained close for some time, and when Andropov died in 1984, Gorbachev seemed to be the likely heir. But the party's old guard, who feared the purges that Gorbachev and Adropov encouraged, elected Konstantin Chernenko as general secretary. In order to appease Gorbachev, he was given a powerful role in the part ideologue. Gorbachev then decided to sway the international opinion. When visiting Britain Margaret Thatcher said of Gorbachev. "I like Mr. Gorbachev. We can do business together". Following the death of Chernenko, Gorbachev was elected secretary of the party on March 11, 1985. Gorbachev's foreign and domestic policies were equated with the terms

Mar. 2, 1931, general secretary of the Soviet Communist party (1985-91) and president of the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics (1988-91), was the last leader of the USSR. By his reform programs of glasnost and perestroika, Gorbachev hoped to breathe new life into the increasingly stagnant Soviet system. Instead, by removing the rigid controls that had kept the system together for decades, he brought about its dissolution. He thus played a pivotal role in the dramatic series of events that transformed the international scene in the 1990s: the end of the cold war between East and West, the sudden disappearance of the Soviet empire, and the virtual elimination of communism as a dominant influence in world affairs.
