This is an interesting news article about Gorbachev calling for Russia, EU and USA to hold a summit and defrost relations. The timing of his re-appearance on the political scene is noteworthy. It does appear that many Russians feel he is a traitor to Russia and want him to keep quiet. Others in the Ukraine say they would have no such talks until the Russians leave. The comments following the story are quite a few pages long and reveal a lot about how some Russians feel about America. Will there be a summit?
Gorbachev Russia US EU should hold summits to defrost relations RT News
Russia, the EU and US should immediately hold summits to sort out their differences, believes former Soviet President Mikhail Gorbachev, and the parties should work together on global challenges and threats in order to stabilize international relations.
"We must urgently defrost relations," he said in an article published by Rossiiskaya Gazeta newspaper.
"I suggest that the leaders of Russia and the United States think about holding a summit on a broad agenda, without preconditions. The same kind of summit must be prepared between Russia and the European Union."
According to Gorbachev, both the USA and Russia should discuss “the specter of relations and problems” together as they have "special responsibility."
"We shouldn’t be afraid that someone will ‘lose face’ or someone will win a propaganda victory. That should all belong in the past. We should think about the future," said Gorbachev, who was instrumental in ending the Cold War between the Soviet Union and Western countries.
