The correct answer is D) he refused to crush rebellions in Eastern Europe.Mikhail Gorbachev had trouble retaining support from hard-line communists because he refused to crush rebellions in Eastern Europe.When everything seemed that the Soviet Union would never change, Mikhail Gorbachev started a series of changes called perestroika and glasnost that transformed the world scenario and the relationships between Russia and the West World. Gorbachev opened the door to foreign investment, gave some liberties to the soviet people, and ended up dissolving the Soviet Union on December 26, 1991.

Why did Mikhail Gorbachev have trouble retaining support from hard-line communists? because "he refused to crush rebellions in Eastern Europe"
The answer is he refused to crush rebellions in Eastern Europe. When Mikhail Gorbachev expected the wheels of influence in the Soviet Union in 1985, no one foretold the rebellion he would bring. Gorbachev's local reforms and nuclear decommissioning contracts helped end the Cold War then eventually led to the vivid downfall of communism in Europe.

The main reason why Mikhail Gorbachev had trouble retaining support from hard-line communists was that he was more willing than most to "talk" with the United States in order to move the two countries forward out of hostile ground.
