Soviet president Mikhail Gorbachev attempted to hold Lithuania to
ransom over its bid for independence in 1990, according to recently
declassified files.

Documents by Swedish consul Dag Sebastian Alander, who was working in
Leningrad at that time, say Gorbachev called for the payment of 21
billion roubles (about $126 billion according to the unofficial
exchange rate of the time) and the transfer of the Klaipėda region to
the Russian Soviet republic, delfi.lt reported.

However he was shafted  as usually :-)

Gorbachev was shafted? What kind of a debilistic interpretation is
that?
