The Moscow Summit comprised a meeting between US President George H. W. Bush and Soviet General Secretary Mikhail Gorbachev, taking place on July 30–31, 1991, just a few months before the collapse of communism in Soviet Union. It was their fifth meeting following a meeting that included Ronald Reagan, in New York in December 1988. Furthermore, the collapse of communism and the pending reunification of Germany necessitated a fourth summit meeting of the Commission on Security and Cooperation in Europe in order to formally end the Cold War.
