El fin de la Unión Soviética. La guerra fría terminó por el derrumbe de uno de sus contendientes. El proceso de reformas iniciado por Gorbachov en 1985 precipitó una dinámica que terminó llevándose por delante la propia existencia del estado fundado por Lenin.
. Both leaders met on the ship Máximo Gorki anchored off the coast of Malta on December 2 and 3, 1989.
The dismemberment of the socialist republics, the fall of the Berlin Wall and consequently the disappearance of Russia as a planetary superpower, undoubtedly constitute the geopolitical phenomena of the 20th century that marked the end of the cold war between the United States and the Soviet Union .
This unexpected collapse of this political system that enthused and gravitated much of the world for more than half a century, posed in our view a global question of whether humanity was indeed leading towards lasting peace or, on the contrary, to global anarchy. .
The disappearance of Russia as a world power at the end of 1991 caused terrifying confusions and fears of monumental dimensions on the world stage, which led distinguished and respectable analysts of international relations and world problems to reflect on the implications of this event in the sphere world .
For example, the American writer Michael Mann, in his book "The Incoherent Empire" relates that the United States has faced, since then, a range of geopolitical challenges more varied and complex than those experienced and overcome during the Cold War.
Those challenges include, cites the author of the aforementioned book, published in 2003, the rise and worsening of religious fundamentalism, ethno-nationalism, the decline or imperial ideological wear, as well as the global disorder generated by the aforementioned event.
However, in the same book Mann collects on his page 12 several excerpts from two separate speeches delivered by the presidents of the United States, father and son, George Habert Bush and George Walker Bush, respectively, in March 1991 and in September 2002 on the collapse of the Soviet Union, and they say: “After this event we see a new world approaching. A world in which there is a real possibility that a new world order may emerge…. in which the principles of justice and fair play…. protect the weak from the strong. A world in which the United Nations, freed from the impasse caused by the Cold War, enjoys sufficient equanimity to live up to the historical vision of its founders. A world in which freedom and respect for humanity will inhabit among nations… ..not even the new world order can guarantee an era of perpetual peace. However, our mission must be to achieve lasting peace. ”
