Aspen Public Radio hosted a special public event, Resurgent Russian in the Time of Trump, on August 22, 2017.

Corey Flintoff, former NPR bureau chief in Moscow, was joined on stage by Tom Korologos, former US ambassador to Belgium. Flintoff reported for NPR as Russian President Vladimir Putin cracked down on dissent, seized Crimea and led Russia into war in eastern Ukraine. Since his recent return to the U.S., Flintoff has been following the revelations of the Trump administration's ties to Russia and what that could mean for the future of relations between two of the world's most potently armed nations.
