My topic for the paper is: Mikhail Sergeevich Gorbacev: who was he and why did he go for reform? 
This paper explores the figure of Mikhail Sergeevich Gorbachev, analyzing his life, political career, and the reasons that led him to undertake a series of radical reforms in the Soviet Union. The goal is to understand the historical, political, and personal context that influenced his decisions, as well as the impact of his policies on the end of the Cold War and the collapse of the Soviet Union.
