Eduard Ambrosiyevich Shevardnadze (Georgian: ედუარდ ამბროსის ძე შევარდნაძე, Eduard Ambrosis dze Ševardnadze; 25 January 1928 – 7 July 2014) was a Georgian politician and diplomat. He served as First Secretary of the Georgian Communist Party (GPC), the de facto leader of Soviet Georgia from 1972 to 1985 and as Minister of Foreign Affairs of the Soviet Union from 1985 to 1991. Shevardnadze was responsible for many key decisions in Soviet foreign policy during the Gorbachev Era including reunification of Germany. Following the dissolution of the Soviet Union, he was President of Georgia (or in equivalent posts) from 1992 to 2003. He was forced to retire in 2003 as a consequence of the bloodless Rose Revolution. (wiki)

Self
La inestabilidad económica y las intrigas en el Partido Comunista (PCUS) provocaron la caída del mayor imperio del siglo XX. Mijaíl Gorbachov no pudo evitarlo con su "perestroika". Corría noviembre de 1989 y caía el Muro de Berlín. Dos años después, los ciudadanos derribaban las estatuas de Lenin y el gesto confirmó la desintegración de la Unión Soviética. Dos años fatídicos para un debilitado Mijaíl Gorbachov, Secretario General del PCUS desde 1985, que se había empeñado en instaurar reformas arriesgadas y radicales, de consecuencias nefastas para la URSS.En política exterior, Gorbachov levantó el "telón de acero" y en política interior inició la democratización del país, lanzando dos conceptos revolucionarios: glasnost o libertad de expresión y perestroika o reforma económica.
