He was the oldest and longest-lived president when he was elected; He also broke the fate of death that "any president elected in two decades will be killed in office". He didn't study economics, but he founded Reagan Economics. During the author's stay in the United States, Americans, especially Republicans, spoke highly of Reagan and considered him an "iconic figure" in the United States. According to China's traditional moral standards, it should be "taboo for the dead", but seeking truth from facts and comprehensively evaluating Reagan are worthy of history and future generations.

Reagan in different people's eyes

After Reagan's death, a senior Russian historian pointed out that Russians had contradictory views on Reagan, and people thought Reagan was "a difficult person to deal with". Only former Soviet President Gorbachev called Reagan a "great president". He was very sad about the death of Mr. Reagan.

Kissinger mentioned Reagan many times in his book Great Diplomacy, including a passage: "Reagan's performance was astounding and impeccable. As far as academic observers are concerned, it is almost incomprehensible. Reagan knew almost nothing about history, and a small part of what he knew was borrowed from him to support his firm prejudice. When you talk to Reagan, you sometimes think: Why do some people think that he should be governor, or even president? However, as a historian, it must be explained how such a mediocre person can dominate California for eight years and then dominate the White House government affairs. "

Like Bush, Reagan was unpopular in the Arab world. Reagan was extremely pro-Israel. In 1983, a suicide attack occurred in the US military camp in Beirut, killing 241 US troops and shaking the US ruling and opposition parties. Reagan had to pull the US Marines out of Beirut. After his death, the office of Israeli Prime Minister Sharon issued a statement saying that President Reagan was a friend of Israel. During his administration, the relationship between Israel and the United States was based on mutual understanding and cooperation.
