What occurred under the policy of perestroika? Choose three correct answers.

Answer
A
Democratic government was established.
B
Some non-communist candidates were allowed.
C
Some private ownership of business was allowed.
D
Government control of the economy was reduced.
E
Totalitarianism remained as strong as ever.

Explanation

Perestroika was Mikhail Gorbachev’s program of restructuring the Soviet system. It loosened political restrictions enough for some non-communist candidates to run, and it introduced limited private business while reducing government control of the economy. It did not establish a fully democratic government, and totalitarian control did not remain unchanged.
