What happened when Gorbachev came to power in 1985?
When Mikhail Gorbachev came to power in 1985, he introduced significant reforms aimed at revitalizing the Soviet Union, including policies of glasnost (openness) and perestroika (restructuring). These reforms encouraged greater transparency in government and the economy, which led to increased political discourse and a weakening of state control.

Gorbachev's leadership marked a pivotal shift in Soviet policy and global relations during the Cold War.
