Question

How Did Gorbachev leadership of the soviet union differ from that khrushchev

Answer 1

Brezhnev was much keener to protect the priviledges of the Nomemclature than reforming the country. Khrushchev had reformed the Soviet Union because he wanted it to have a better image abroad. He was destituted by the Nomemclature who feared about their priviledges and blamed him for failing in Cuba in his foreign policy.
