EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print captured by Ken Lennox, we are transported back to December 1987, where two influential figures in the political landscape of their respective countries meet at RAF base Brize Norton. Margaret Thatcher, the formidable Prime Minister of Britain during the 1980s and a prominent conservative leader, extends her hand towards President Mikhail Gorbachev, the visionary leader of the Soviet Union. The image encapsulates a crucial moment in history when East met West amidst tense geopolitical relations. Both leaders were known for their strong ideologies and unwavering determination to shape their nations' destinies. As they shake hands with firmness and respect, one can almost feel the weight of responsibility on their shoulders as they navigate through complex international affairs. Thatcher's iron-willed leadership style was marked by her commitment to free-market capitalism and staunch opposition to communism. Meanwhile, Gorbachev's policies aimed at reforming his country's stagnant economy and fostering openness within Soviet society had already begun reshaping global politics. This photograph serves as a powerful reminder that even amidst ideological differences, diplomacy plays an essential role in shaping world events. It captures a fleeting moment frozen in time - one that symbolizes hope for improved relations between two superpowers during an era defined by tension and uncertainty. Ken Lennox's expertly captured image allows us to reflect upon this significant encounter between Thatcher and Gorbachev – a meeting that would leave an indelible mark on both nations' histories while setting forth new possibilities
