The country badly needed reform, although few could foresee its effects.Gorbachev approached the problems of this country by introducing two new policies: glasnost (openness) and perestroika (restructuring). His aims were to identify those areas that needed reform and encourage popular debate about how best to deal with them. At first, such policies were welcome, but as the shortcomings of the system were revealed, people soon became discontented: the problem turned out to be so deep-rooted that only radical reforms could solve them.The initial optimism, however, did have an effect on relations between the Soviet Union and the West. As early as November 1985, Gorbachev met US president Roland Reagan at Geneva for the first superpower summit since 1979.

By November 1989 the decision to open the border between East and West Germany had been made. On 9 November, people from the two sides helped to destroy the berlin Wall, for long a symbol of the divide. Soon after that radical political changes were made in a number of East European countries - Poland, Hungary, Bulgaria, Czechoslovakia. In the new atmosphere of reform the two Germanies reunited. The cold war came to an official end in November 1990, when 34 countries representing the old East West divide signed the Charter of paris for a new Europe.
