Gorbachev blasts Bush Administration
Former Soviet president Mikhail Gorbachev, ex Cold War enemy, criticized Bush for “sowing disorder across the world by seeking to build an empire.”
Gorbachev, who was premier of the Soviet Union when it disintegrated on his watch told reporters during a news conference in Moscow, “The Americans then gave birth to the idea of a new empire, world leadership by a single power, and what followed? What has followed are unilateral actions, what has followed are wars, what has followed is ignoring the U.N. Security Council, ignoring international law and ignoring the will of the people, even the American people.” He then went on to say, “It is a massive strategic mistake: no single center can command the entire world, no one,” he said. “Current America has made so many mistakes.”
Sounds like a pretty truthful summary to me!
Too Bad Bush isn’t listening to this man. For that fact, to bad Bush isn’t listening to us either!
