About the Event: The state of affairs between the U.S. and Russia has worsened in recent years, due to conflicts in the Ukraine and Syria, and elsewhere. A panel of four top Russia experts will discuss the U.S.-Russia relationship at a time when it seems the bleakest since the end of the Cold War and will be  addressing the following questions:

  • Looking back: Based on your own experience, what were the greatest challenges of the post-Soviet era, 1991 to present? What were the greatest accomplishments? What were the greatest disappointments?
  • Looking ahead: What are the greatest challenges? What is America's role in that future? What parts of this experience are reusable in the event of a new crisis?
