Ukraine: The Latest

Vladimir Putin's Russia: Past, present & future

Day 632. During the Ukraine: the latest team's recent trip to the United States, David Knowles sat down with Dr Leon Aron, writer, historian and senior fellow at the American Enterprise Institute. Dr Aron was born in Moscow, and came to the US from the former Soviet Union as a child as a refugee in 1978. In this interview we hear about his research into the cultural development of modern Russia, and look at the transformation of Russian politics and society under Vladimir Putin.
