Eduard Ambrosis dze Shevardnadze (1928-2014) was a Soviet and Georgian politician and diplomat. He served as First Secretary of the Georgian Communist Party (GPC) from 1972 to 1985, which made him the de facto leader of Georgia.
As First Secretary, Shevardnadze started several economic reforms, which would spur economic growth in the republic; an uncommon occurrence in the Soviet Union because the country was experiencing a nationwide economic stagnation.
Shevardnadze’s anti-corruption campaign continued until he resigned from his office as First Secretary. In 1985, Mikhail Gorbachev appointed Shevardnadze to the post of Minister of Foreign Affairs. He served in this position, except for a brief interruption between 1990 and 1991, until the fall of the Soviet Union. During this time, only Gorbachev would outrank Shevardnadze in importance in Soviet foreign policy. Shevardnadze was responsible for many key decisions in Soviet foreign policy during the Gorbachev era, and was seen by the outside world as the face of Soviet reforms such as Perestroika.
