Mikhail Sergeyevich Gorbachev, the last President of the Soviet Union, Nobel Peace Prize laureate and ideologist of glasnost and perestroika, “died this evening after a serious and long illness”, the Central Clinical Hospital in Moscow said, quoted by the Interfax, TASS and RIA Novosti news agencies. He was 91. In a world split in two, he dreamed to have the best of both worlds. Among his many highlights, Gorbachev can also boast the unique privilege of crowning — as pictured above — the Queen of Chess, 侯逸凡 (Hóu Yìfán), at the awarding ceremony of the 35th Women’s World Championship in Tirana, Albania on November 30, 2011.
