Dealing With Despots – USA Russia Summit Meetings
Big Red Car in the ATX, which is headed to 105F today – it looks like 112F on Monday. Hello, Texas summer! It hit 102F yesterday.
So, the entire kerfuffle of Putin – a despot – meeting with our president got me interested in the history of US-Russia summits. Turns out there is a lot of history which is pertinent to the subject.
What is particularly interesting to me is the first such summits.
The players were Stalin, Nikita Krushchev, Vice President Nixon, President Eisenhower, and President Kennedy.
