Gorbachev dies at 91
#7
Gorbachev was much more popular in the west than he was in Russia. Russians blamed him for every difficulty the country had after the USSR collapsed. When he ran for president of the federation in 1996, he polled less than 1%.

nevertheless, he possibly saved the world from nuclear annihilation but not contesting the Warsaw Bloc countries pulling away or the collapse of the Soviet government.
