Gorbachev to speak in Rhode Island

Former Soviet Union President and Nobel Peace Prize winner Mikhail Gorbachev will visit Rhode Island in less than two weeks.

The former world leader will attend a members-only question and answer session at The Carnegie Abbey Club on Saturday, April 1.

The appearance is part of The Carnegie Abbey Club’s World Leadership Guest Series, in which thought and opinion leaders from around the globe are invited to discuss international events with Club members and their guests.

Last year, the elite sporting estate in Portsmouth hosted former presidents William Jefferson Clinton and George H.W. Bush.
