A place to ask questions of Lemmygrad's best and brightest
Hey, I actually already asked a question pertaining to Grigory Romanov, Mikhail Gorbachev's "rival" to power in Freechat but never got any response so I want to ask again if anyone can provide good enough information though a lot of it has been really scarce or conflicting with him being a reformer who agreed to Andropov, a conservative or a staunch yet pragmatic communist. Thoughts about him are also welcome.
He seemed like a younger Chernenko and could have saved the USSR tbh. Speaking of him I feel like we need more info on Ligachev.
Same I think Yegor Ligachev also is interesting though by younger Chernenko what does that mean?
I feel like he would have continued Chernenkos vision if he became general secretary.
I see. But what is Chernenko's vision actually?
A Soviet state that wouldn’t be something like perestroika.
That doesn't really narrow it down, I'm sorry.
Yeah I’m kinda vague sometimes however Romanov would have probably not done the disastrous things Gorby later did and would have probably never have even done the disastrous liberalization.
