"He was the president of South Africa in 1990 and pushed reforms that ended apartheid."

Frederik W. (F. W.) de Klerk was the last apartheid-era State President (1989–1994); in 1990 he began dismantling apartheid (releasing Nelson Mandela, unbanning the ANC) and helped negotiate the transition to majority rule, sharing the 1993 Nobel Peace Prize with Mandela.
