"Not One Inch: America, Russia, and the Making of Post-Cold War Stalemate” with Mary Elise Sarotte

What went wrong in US-Russian relations in the 1990s and early 21st century? What impact did NATO enlargement—in many cases, to states formerly controlled by Moscow—have on the relationship between the world’s two nuclear superpowers?  Is it possible for Ukraine to join NATO now, even as Russian troops occupy large swathes of its territory? History provides answers to these questions and precedents as to how to grant membership to a divided state—even one on the frontline. Join Professor Mary Elise Sarotte for a discussion of these issues and of her award-winning book, Not One Inch: America, Russia, and the Making of Post-Cold War Stalemate.
