More quotes by Mikhail Gorbachev
No one, no single center, can today command the world. No single group of countries can do it. Under the current U.S. president, I don't think we can fundamentally change the situation as it is developing now. It is dangerous. The world is experiencing a period of growing global disarray.
Mikhail Gorbachev
If you want Russia to be a real fully developed partner, then America should invest in Russia and activate Russia as a strong nation.
Mikhail Gorbachev
A New World Order is required to deal with the Climate Change crisis.
Mikhail Gorbachev
America must be the teacher of democracy, not the advertiser of the consumer society. It is unrealistic for the rest of the world to reach the American living standard.
Mikhail Gorbachev
Dangers await only those who do not react to life.
Mikhail Gorbachev
We need a new system of values, a system of the organic unity between humankind and nature and the ethic of global responsibility.
Mikhail Gorbachev
Certain people in the United States are driving nails into this structure of our relationship, then cutting off the heads. So the Soviets must use their teeth to pull them out.
Mikhail Gorbachev
Democracy must learn to defend itself.
Mikhail Gorbachev
It sometimes seems to me that some of our Western partners do not want Russia to fully recover. They would like Russia to be in a subdued state, and they want Russian resources to be used for the benefit of the U.S. economy.
Mikhail Gorbachev
If people don't like Marxism, they should blame the British Museum.
Mikhail Gorbachev
On the day I became Soviet leader, in March 1985, I had a special meeting with the leaders of the Warsaw Pact countries and told them: 'You are independent, and we are independent. You are responsible for your policies, we are responsible for ours. We will not intervene in your affairs, I promise you.'
Mikhail Gorbachev
I paid too heavy a price for perestroika.
Mikhail Gorbachev
The most important thing is who counts the votes.
Mikhail Gorbachev
We must speak more clearly about sexuality, contraception, about abortion, about values that control population, because the ecological crisis, in short, is the population crisis. Cut the population by 90% and there aren't enough people left to do a great deal of ecological damage.
Mikhail Gorbachev
The opponents of perestroika had suffered a defeat, and then they organized the coup.
Mikhail Gorbachev
In October 1917, we parted with the old world, rejecting it once and for all. We are moving toward a new world, a world of Communism. We shall never turn off that road.
Mikhail Gorbachev
Putin wants to stay in power, but not so that he can finally solve our most pressing problems: education, health care, poverty.
Mikhail Gorbachev
The Union was destroyed against the will of the people, and it was done deliberately - with the participation of the Russian leadership, on the one hand, and that of the putschists, on the other.
Mikhail Gorbachev
The world will not accept dictatorship or domination.
Mikhail Gorbachev
We desperately need to recognise that we are the guests, not the masters, of nature and adopt a new paradigm for development, based on the costs and benefits to all people, and bound by the limits of nature herself rather than the limits of technology and consumerism.
Mikhail Gorbachev
