Former Soviet President Mikhail Gorbachev died in Moscow at the age of 92. It was reported on Tuesday evening, August 30, by the Russian media.
“Mikhail Sergeevich Gorbachev died this evening after a serious and prolonged illness,” the media quoted reports from their Central Clinical Hospital in Moscow as saying.
According to media reports, on the eve of his death, Gorbachev came to the hospital for hemodialysis. The former general secretary had kidney problems.
