Former Soviet President Mikhail Gorbachev in cooperation with US leaders Ronald Reagan and George H.W. Bush tamed a dangerous arms race, Jack F. Matlock, Jr., who served as Ambassador to the USSR from 1987-1991, said in a statement which he shared with Sputnik.
"President of the USSR Mikhail Gorbachev, cooperating with Presidents Ronald Reagan and George H.W. Bush, negotiated an end to the Cold War and tamed a dangerous arms race,” Matlock, who is an Author of “Reagan and Gorbachev: How the Cold War Ended” said. “He then liberated the Soviet Union from its Communist dictatorship, freeing its peoples to build a democratic future.

🌩 Storms blamed in deaths of 3 in Michigan, Ohio & Arkansas
Severe storms that brought damaging winds, heavy rains and flash flooding to parts of the Midwest and the South were blamed for the deaths of three people, including two children in Michigan and Arkansas, as well as a woman in Ohio.
In the Michigan city of Monroe, a 14-year-old girl was electrocuted Monday night in the backyard of her home after coming into contact with an electrical line that was knocked down by a thunderstorm.
And in the Detroit-area community of Warren, two boys were hospitalized — including an 8-year-old who was in critical condition — after one of them touched a downed power line Tuesday morning. In Arkansas, an 11-year-old boy died after he was swept into a storm drain during heavy rainfall Monday, authorities said.

📈 Moldova is experiencing an energy crisis due to rising energy prices
The central authorities of the republic are making attempts to provide the country with firewood, coal and fuel oil. In early August, the National Energy Regulatory Agency (ANRE) increased the gas tariff for consumers from 18.62 lei to 23 lei per cubic meter (from 96 cents to 1.2 dollars).
The head of the republic stressed that the government is doing large-scale work by diversifying sources, "however, it is not so easy to do it quickly, especially in a market with such high prices." All results, according to Moldovan President Maia Sandu, "will be felt in a few years." She expressed hope that the EU countries will support the Moldovan authorities in overcoming the energy crisis.
