Rose Gottemoeller, a Hoover Institution research fellow and former Clinton and Obama administration national security aide, sets the record straight on the Clinton-Yeltsin summits, what she learned as the first American woman to lead nuclear arms talks, why Vladimir Putin went from offering help in the aftermath of the 9/11 attacks to seeing America as a threat Russia’s security, and the challenges of serving as NATO’s deputy secretary general during the first Trump presidency. It’s all chronicled in her new book, "Security Through Cooperation: Space, Nuclear Weapons, and US-Russia Relations after the Cold War" - a must-read for history buffs and students of the enigma that is Putin and the Russian mindset.
