How does Reagan challenge Gorbachev to prove that his reforms are not token gestures?

Reagan challenges Gorbachev to demonstrate the sincerity of his reforms by urging him to take concrete actions that go beyond mere rhetoric. He emphasizes the need for genuine reductions in nuclear arsenals and the establishment of democratic freedoms in Eastern Europe. By framing the dialogue around verifiable actions rather than empty promises, Reagan seeks to hold Gorbachev accountable and ensure that reforms lead to meaningful change. This approach pressures Gorbachev to substantiate his claims with tangible results.
