He did shit on Stalin’s legacy but I don’t think that set the stage for the USSR downfall. I think if Andropov had another decade in him USSR might’ve survived.
No question both his and Brezhnev’s govts had failed economic policies and in general weren’t great domestically but we shouldn’t discard what those governments did on the international stage.

I’d be curious to know more about the international legacy there, if people have material on it.
