Program Description

Event Details

In Russia, some things never change. The Soviet Union is long gone but the Russian people and their President are alive and well. The end of the Cold War offered the West an opportunity to bring Russia into our rule-based world. Instead, we squandered the "Peace Dividend" and allowed NATO and the EU to "poke the eye of the Russian bear" with all of today's consequences.

As an international lawyer, historian, and genealogist, British citizen Thomas Tyrrell presents a unique perspective of current events to our SWFL community.
