Mikhail Gorbachev
The emerging 'environmentalization' of our civilization and the need for vigorous action in the interest of the entire global community will inevitably have multiple political consequences. Perhaps the most important of them will be a gradual change in the status of the United Nations. Inevitably, it must assume some aspects of a world government.
Mikhail Gorbachev
We were nearly one of the last to realize that in the age of information science the most expensive asset is knowledge.

Mikhail Gorbachev
Americans have a severe disease - worse than AIDS. It's called the winner's complex.

Mikhail Gorbachev
History punishes those that come late to it.
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
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
The world will not accept dictatorship or domination.
Mikhail Gorbachev
Sometimes people ask me why I began perestroika. Were the causes basically domestic or foreign? The domestic reasons were undoubtedly the main ones, but the danger of nuclear war was so serious that it was a no less significant factor.
Mikhail Gorbachev
Contemporary social democracy is what I believe is the right concept.
Mikhail Gorbachev
