In our discussions here at the forum there was no trace of the futile debate about what is better, capitalism or socialism...We should seek a synthesis of ideas and values that have proven their viability.
Mikhail Gorbachev

It is better to discuss things, to argue and engage in polemics than make perfidious plans of mutual destruction.
Mikhail Gorbachev
Image
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

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.'

I believe, as Lenin said, that this revolutionary chaos may yet crystallize into new forms of life.

People, human beings with all their creative diversity, are the makers of history.

I believe in the cosmos. All of us are linked to the cosmos.

Those who are late will be punished by life itself.

Today, peace means the ascent from simple coexistence to cooperation and common creativity among countries and nations.

To me, nature is sacred. Trees are my temples and forests are my cathedrals.
