Along with China, Putin’s Russia has emerged as the greatest challenge facing the Biden Administration. Cooperation with Beijing to frustrate America’s global leadership and exacerbate divisions within America by using both new technologies and established methods makes Putin’s Russia every bit as much a challenge as it was during the height of the Cold War. Dr. Fiona Hill, former National Security Council and National Intelligence official will discuss the threat and what must be done to confront it.
Moderating our discussion are Dr. Claire Sechler Merkel, who serves as Vice President of PCFR and Sr. Director of the McCain Institute for International Leadership at ASU; and David A. Merkel, Associate Fellow with the International Institute for Strategic Studies, who previously served as Deputy Assistant Secretary of State; Director, National Security Council and Senior Professional Staff on the Senate Foreign Relations Committee.
