Was jetzt auf dem Spiel steht

Mikhail Gorbachev on the dangerous disorder of the world. Thirty years after the end of the East-West conflict, peace in the world is once again at risk. The US President announces the termination of the disarmament agreement with Russia, Europe is fragmenting, China is pushing forward, and a wave of nationalism and ideologization threatens the freedom and self-determination of nations. Mikhail Gorbachev, the last great statesman of the 1989 revolution, warns of a war of all against all in light of the perilous global situation. He describes the inability and unwillingness of current political leaders to work towards international solutions. He addresses the major challenges of our time, such as the crisis of democracies and the rise of populists and ideologists, and advocates for dialogue and understanding. Last but not least, he focuses on Germany, to which he remains particularly connected even thirty years after the fall of the Berlin Wall.
