Prospective from the west
If you were an American citizen, how will you view Gorbachev? If I were an American citizen, I would view Gorbachev as a very liberal and "western" leader. This is due to the fact that many of Gorbachev's policies, such as the freedom if press, media and speech and also his economic and political policies were very "western" so as to speak. Gorbachev's policies were very different from those who were before him, his policies were not "hardcore communist" but was liberal and western. The policies of Gorbachev were more similar to that of other western nations as compared to the previous Soviet policies. I would also view Gorbachev as a peace-keeper who wanted to ensure peace between the USSR and the USA. In conclusion, I would view Gorbachev as a good leader.
