Former U. S. Ambassador to Russia Michael McFaul on Friday called the current state of affairs between the United States and Russia one of the most confrontational moments between the two world powers since some periods during the Cold War.
“You have to go deep into the Cold War to remember a time like where we’re at today,” he said at Jack Morton Auditorium.
Amb.
