International conference, Czernin Palace
President Reagan´s bold and straightforward approach was not the only factor that brought down communism in Central and Eastern Europe. But there is little doubt that without it the road to freedom would have been far more complicated and uncertain. What were the influences, ideas and principles that shaped Reagan´s policy? And are there now, when the global leadership of the West seems in question, any foreign policy lessons that we can learn from the Reagan era.
