Mikhail Gorbachev / 米哈伊尔·戈尔巴乔夫
Mikhail Gorbachev / 米哈伊尔·戈尔巴乔夫 enters the wiki through 81.间谍与叛徒:恕我直言,007的故事弱爆了(下) as the rising Soviet leader whose British visit was interpreted and indirectly shaped through Oleg Gordievsky’s intelligence. The episode says Margaret Thatcher trusted Gordievsky’s advice after earlier Soviet political reporting, and that British briefings passed back through KGB channels helped make the visit work.
Gorbachev also belongs to the episode’s nuclear-risk branch. After Gordievsky reached the West, Americans sought his judgment before Gorbachev’s U.S. visit, especially around how the Soviet side might read nuclear-disarmament trust and the Strategic Defense Initiative.
