Unending tension: Soviet - US relations & their implications for today

On this episode of Direct Impact, Rick Sanchez sits down with history professor and co-creator of the docuseries “The Untold History of the United States” Peter Kuznick to discuss the history of U.S. - Soviet relations. The two engage in a riveting conversation about the reasons for the Cold War and those who pushed and profited from this undeclared tension that threatened more than a few times to spill over into a hot war. The two also discuss how the legacy of the period still poisons modern attempts to develop peaceful relations between Russia and the United States, and what this means for the NATO alliance. Don’t miss it!
