		Raisa Gorbachev, who has died from leukaemia aged 67, became the star of the final act of the cold war and the secret weapon in her husband's bid to end 50 years of confrontation between Washington and Moscow.
		Raisa continued her research into collective farm society until, in 1978, her husband was elected as secretary of the central committee of the CPSU and the Gorbachevs moved back to Moscow.
		Raisa Gorbachev was loved abroad for bringing a dash of colour and a breath of warmth to Soviet politics, and hated at home for refusing to stay in the kitchen and support her husband from the sidelines.
