      abstract = {The collection consists of three FOIA files from the Bush  Library. The first file contains material related to the  Moscow summit and the coup in August 1991 against Soviet  President Mikhail Gorbachev. This file contains cables sent  to the White House situation room concerning day-by-day  developments, and conversations between President Bush and  other foreign leaders. The second file, which concerns the  dissolution of the Soviet Union, highlights the Bush  administration's response to the dissolution and the  formation of the Commonwealth of Independent States.  Documents here concern economic and humanitarian support,  diplomatic recognition of the republics, aiding the  transition to democratic governments and market economies,  and defense issues, particularly the fate and control over  the former Soviet Union's nuclear arsenal. The last FOIA  file contains materials on the meeting between President  Bush and President Mikhail Gorbachev in Malta (December  2-3, 1989) and the subsequent meetings between President  Bush and NATO leaders in Brussels (December 3- 4, 1989).},
