Angela E. Stent 'The Limits of Partnership'

Decades after the Cold War, have U.S.-Russian relations improved much? Stent, head of Georgetown's Center for Eurasian, Russian, and East European Studies and a former State Department advisor to Clinton and Bush, examines how issues including nuclear arms, Iran, and terrorism have so far proved intractable, and outlines how current and future administrations might overcome the legacy of mutual distrust that haunts our relationship with Russia.
