and it is a habit in russia and eastern europe to look under the rug i also work for the u.s.government as opposed to what is being said. but the one they mention that i refer to are ridiculous. of a blake to make a comment about their previous question about the holocaust to the knowledge though horrors that it brought to the world. some of the world were to supporters have not crisp -- submitted any responsibility but to say they were victims so in hong three right in the middle of the city that makes no distinction with the hungarian assistance in those that were invaded and it is an outrage in debt was executioners. and it was extensive. comparable to what the germans are doing. if you don't come to terms with what you did with the new refugees obviously are altogether different. >> there is a microphone coming. >> i was taking class's in this is important when croatia and serbia and macedonia but during the wars of the 1990's out rather base hits and 1990's for kids and people as they hope to come back 50 percent women and 50% kids they're not even interested in asylum wi

you figured out there's money to be made in eastern europe, you've figured out this privatization thing is interesting. you then figure out russia is the place to go. so you end up in russia. and similar things happen. you're finding companies that are not well covered by analysts that are deeply, deeply undervalued and you start investing in those. you've now raised money from other people as well. >> so i started an investment fund. so we fast forward a number of years. i go from my $2,000 to $20,000. i ended up raising $25 million for an investment fund called the hermitage fund. i move to moscow. i'm the only wall street-educated investor on the ground in moscow at the time. >> and the banker, edmond safra, is your partner at this point. >> edmond safra, who was the owner of republic national bank was my partner. if poland was cheap, russia was 50 times cheaper. >> wow. >> it was remarkable. russia-- in order to go from communism to capitalism-- boris yeltsin, who was the president of russia at the time, decided that the best way to do that was to do what they called mass privatizat

what he meant to say is i will not accept any soviet domination of eastern europe. >> governor carterresponse? >> charitably that was a momentary clip. uncharitably it was a loss of touch with reality. >> clearly a huge moment where the country makes the judgment, you know what maybe we do need to go in a different direction and replace the president. >> ford had never lost an election in his life. won 15 straight terms in the house. here he is beaten by a one term governor of georgia. he was crushed. >> my voice isn't up to par. let me call on the real spokesperson for the family. betty. >> it's been the greatest honor of my husband's life to have served his fellow americans during two of the most difficult years in our history. >> i think the real test to come is now. will these people who have taken apart the old system can somehow translate politics into power and make a government work. that's their real test. we are on the threshold possibly of the greatest change since the new deal in 1932.

bribery was an incessant part of the wartime life if we could see all of her eastern europe particularlyere there were so little germans present and the command was basically handed over to those that knew the local language. so, this now is the right image. this is a picture of my grandfather as a young man in the early 1920s when he was accepted into the lithuanian military academy for officers training. he was the first of his family to go to secondary school. he grew up in a two room shack and his mother barbara with whom i inherited my middle name is a non- jewish lithuanian that were all pagan. they have a cure for for snakebite as it turned out and i imagine this not to invoke pity for him but to say that as i began my research it research it was important for me to understand as well as i could prove my grandfather was before i knew him and even before the war, whatever his aspirations going up, who did he want to be? this is closer to how i remember him at the time he immigrated that this is how he would have looked to the passerby during the time of his work. he began his milit

the difference is these people are in a majority in central and eastern europe, while in much of western europe, even in germany they are a minority. that is very dangerous for the european union. >> thank you. i want to pick up on something you said about border control and border issues. europe, if ite will survive requires some external borders or control. i wanted to ask captain this go -- lisco if he could reflect on his experiences, what you think about the border issue> the question of the mediterranean itself? and looking beyond at some of the root causes in africa, north africa, and the middle east. >> thank you very much. i would like to thank the wilson center for inviting me to participate on today's panel. what i will be giving you is more an operators perspective. what i would like to say first off is the coast guard is western hemisphere focused but we are globally engaged. we do have a handful of coast guard men and women in europe and the mediterranean and one africa that are working to improve maritime safety and security. i will come to the border patrol issue. i would

they traveled with me all over eastern europe. i also carried an extra piece of luggage for all this material. i felt i had it have it with me at all times. sometimes repetitious they summarize to offer the readers, each time i opened a white binder pages more of life appears. teenagers back float in lakes, they had an iron business a woolen boot factory, with four or five employees that worked the good wool so good will, the glossy oil that the boots the region was famous for. they saved it for the granddaughter stresses, i was us spoil girl she would tell me. months later in israel. shrugging one shoulder, leaning slightly to that side. as that side. as if she was listening to those who loved her as if they were still alive. just out of sight in the other room. i read read the pages quickly at first, skimming, and going back again looking for the name, it's not there. not. not here, not there, or there. the german wolf, the lithuanian, my copy to take home will be ready in a week, i can retrieve it and read it privately but i st

unbelievably, we are back looking at europe as a place especially in eastern europe because of russian question about that. in ukraine, in crimea, so many nations in eastern europe unsettled and looking to the united states to provide some military backup power in an emergency, to provide military troops, to help train them, get them ready, get them advanced weapons so they feel more comfortable with those russian moves on their borders in eastern europe. did anybody, you know, two years ago think we would be standing here talking about poland, ukraine, countries which had finally come after so many decades of war into an era of peace? now again those are very unsettled places as they look further east to what vladimir putin may be up to. it's a real lesson, i think, that america's veterans really truly called to serve anywhere any time when they are on active duty. you know, those introductions we just heard, that really represents the backbone of america's veterans. polish veterans, catholic veterans, jewish, those who are paralyzed, those who are disabled, officers enlisted. those p

is a very important question in eastern europe, especially in hungary. germany has come to terms with its role and acknowledged the horrors that it brought to the world. some of the world war ii supporters have not admitted responsibility whatsoever. in fact, they see the two were victims. example, there is a new statue right in the makes of the city which no distinction between the 600,000 jews killed with hungarian assistance during world war ii. on the one hand, and the hungarians themselves who were invaded by germany on march 19, 1944. this putting them together in itself is an outrage. they were willing executioners. the hungarian participation in the deportation of those jews was extensive. germansle to what the were doing. if you don't come to terms with what you did, then of course your response to the new immigrants and refugees, the new people who look for a better life, obviously will be different. hungary is not alone in this. anti-semitism is pervasive. >> let's go to the lady in the front of the row. there is a microphone coming. i was tea

book was a way of anchoring myself through a long six-year journey that involved many trips to eastern europe, to israel, many surprises. my hope is that you'll come out way from our gathering wanting to know more about my book but also perhaps you will leave thinking of the stories in your own lives that are yet untold, or questions perhaps that her family members that you have not asked yet. if i have learned anything in the process of this journey, it is that particularly now as so many survivors are passing on it is crucial that we asked the question that perhaps we have not yet asked. so in a sense what i'm talking about his opening those stores that have not been opened yet in our lives. the first pitch i want to share with you is a door. this is the doorway to the police station and present in lithuania. at the time i took the photograph the new police station was being built right next door to it and i could see the bars of the old prison cells on the windows of the first floor. when i opened the door, which i was not supposed to do but i did anyway, it let up one flight of stairs to

[applause] >> it was taking place throughout eastern europe where the germans invaded after the soviet occupation, and in a recent book and they rejected the idea that and of course there was the incentive and so incident and so forth and if that is the case why would it be an exception to the rule were both just an example of what is happening to our eastern europe? >> it is an exception and an example. it is an exception because all the jews were killed but it's not an exception he says that you have programs that are orchestrated the germans but they had an active role, and this idea of the community that yes it's like it was a was a very good idea to blame the jews and the brothers are good example. they were collaborators in the occupation and after they belonged to the party of poland they were collaborators in all possible facts. in the scale of collaboration was not the same cause to cause snyder wrote that cover a lot of collaborators. there were some collaborators but also some peer get it was they weren't announced by others to the soviets, so it was also easy to say there w

, why was he of an exception to the rule was a good exemplar of what was happening throughout eastern europe? >> it's an exception and its an exempt show carried its exception because all the jews were killed by polls, but it's not an exception because you had some that were orchestrated by germans and this idea of timothy snyder and his last book that yes, it's like it was that it was a very good idea for the polls and the germans to blame the jews and they are a good example. they were collaborators in the soviet occupation. they were in the police of the german occupation. so, they were collaborators in all possible tax. in the scale of collaboration was at the same in this region like for example in ukraine. because snyder said there were a lot of collaborators. there were some collaborators, but also some many pacifist to fight it against the soviet. it was-- these polls who were denounced by other polls by the soviets, so it was also easy to say-- [inaudible] >> do you think it's part of the human condition that given the state of authority that existed at that moment that you lived th

nato has seen what russia has done in eastern europe. of course, russia seized crimea and put its military forces in there. russia supported the fighting in eastern ukraine with large number of troops and equipment and leadership over the last almost two years now. and nato has supported the european union's sanctions, economic sanctions against russia for these activities. so nato is on alert. nato-member countries in eastern europe foe what happened in eastern ukraine could for tell some trouble for them with their minorities and with russian influence. nato is not about to roll over and say to vladmir putin, you are our savior in syria. this is what putin would like. what he would like to do is get control of the refugee situation and remind the europeans that the europeans rely on him militarily and then come back to him and say, let's get rid of these sanctions on russia. this would fracture nato and this is also something that putin would be very happy to see. he has a lot of cards on the table. he doesn't want to start a war with t

the difference is, these people are in the majority in central and eastern europe, while much of western europe, even in germany, they are in a minority. that is dangerous for the european union. james: thank you, charles. i want to pick up on something you said about border control and border issues. the border-free europe, if it's going to survive, requires some external border, some external control. i wanted to ask captain brian lisko if he could reflect on his .xperiences what do you think of the border issue, the mediterranean, and looking beyond some of the root causes in africa, north africa, and the middle east? i would like to think the wilson center for inviting me. what i will be giving you is an operator's perspective, and what i would like to say for stock is that the coast guard is western-hemisphere-focused, but we are globally engaged. have a handful of coast guard men and women who are over mediterranean,he one even in africa, trying to make a difference by working with our allies and partners to improve maritime security. i will come to the border patrolling issue. i w

and the third one is russia which doing everything it can to expand its control in eastern europe by taking over part of ukraine, and georgia, by taking over part of georgia, and now by moving fire aircrafts into syria syria. it's got real ambitions. it doesn't have anything that it does usefully, economically except in the business world, except pump oil. and it needs a high price for oil, $100 a barrel, and for the rest of us the oil down $40, $50 even below, but at least down there is a lot better for our consumers, for our economies, and so we have a real interest, i think, that is at odds with the russian desire for control of the middle east and the russian and iranian desire for pumping up the price of oil. bringing it home a little, and it's still impacted what we are discussing right now are the greatest threats to the united states, today, tomorrow and in the future? >> guest: i think one of the biggest is nuclear proliferation, and the potential use of nuclear weapons in the middle east. this agreement that has just gotten signed, and probably will not be disrupted -- >> a

obviously we've been talking about this escalating crisis in eastern europe for months now. we've seen some up already. a lot of the countries not wanting to have anything to do with these flows of refugees. you get the sense the situation is actually getting worse because the eu's inability to have an overview of the whole thing. it's a european crisis and an inability to find consensus on how to deal with things. what started, we had hungarian leaders making statements. there were some allegations of abuse in bulgaria, human rights organizations have been hearing them for about five months now. we had three weeks ago, an afghan killed, shot by the bulgarian police. that's why this report was put together to answer the proper account of people arriving just to see what the scale was. and it is shocking. >> and you've brought us the news that the government has started an investigation. it will be very interesting to see what comes out of it. >> a woman in germany found a body and officers say they want to question a 45-year-old woman who used to live at the address where al

places like eastern europe and russia itself were churning stuff out that they couldn't before. >> you're right. the president is notably down beat constantly when he talks about america. he says, quote, america is chronically dissatisfied with itself. it's a self-critical experience. this is a finger wagging outlet the president had about america. the idea of american exceptionalism is centered in his own personal life experiences. listen. he's had a disregard for the moral purpose of america. he's had a disdain for it. to legitimize iran and try to make a terrorist rogue regime as part of the new international world order and not speak up for iranian students who testing against iran and try to peacefully integrate cuba who continues to attack the united states time and again his outlook has basically legitimized our enemies and people are really bad for world peace and under cut the u.s.'s moral efforts. >> there is no doubt there is a string of foreign policy failures by this president because of the fact that he's not powerful, he's leading from behind. and we have less influence in

>> well, the relationship is strained because nato has seen what russia did in eastern europe. seized crimea, put the military forces in there. russia's supported the fighting in eastern ukraine. large number of troops and equipment and leadership over the last almost two years now. and, and nato has supported the european union's sanctions, economic sanctions against russia for these activities. so nato's on alert. nato member countries know what happened in eastern ukraine could foretell trouble for them with their minorities with russian influence. so nato's not about to roll over and say to vladimir putin, you're our savior in syria. but, of course, this is what putin would like. what he would like to do is get control of the refugee situation and have the europeans rely on him militarily and come back and say, let's get rid of the sanctions on russia. this, of course, would also fracture nato. and so this is also something that putin would be very happy to see. >> all right. thanks to general wesly clark there. vladimir putin was invited to the climate summit this week. and

we have seen those debates intensify in, sweden, all over eastern europe. those have profound implications. look at the german political crisis. this has serious implications not just for the migrant issue but how germany manage the crisis, and a number of different things, including the situation in russia, given these giant political distractions at home. alix: do you expect a deeper swing to the right? you expect closing the borders as being the first step? what is the geopolitical background looking like? reva: we've been watching fragmentation on the contin hile now. wil with the watching reversals in the eu. it is a natural outcome when you have national sentiment rise against a security threat. there is social stress caused by the migrant issue, economic stress. playing to this center right across the continent. you will have a germany that is more intolerant of compromises. you have to respond to your political constituents at home, and that constituency is putting on more and more demands on leadership to look to the national interest before lookin

essentially, russia is waging an "information war" in eastern europe.levision network broadcasts these cheesy game shows that can be picked up in the eastern part of ukraine and the baltic states. where a lot of ethnic russians live. just read that part. right. the shows are popular with those folks, and when they're over, the kremlin airs a "news hour." otherwise known as state-controlled propaganda. exactly. false reports that ethnic russians are being murdered in the west. estonian nuclear plants are melting down. that ukraine is secretly planning to invade russia. without any truth to counter it, people believe the lies. and every day, u.s. security interests in europe are undermined. so what's your battle plan? public diplomacy thinks that if we could license a popular american program, we could air it opposite the russian game shows. steal those viewers away. baywatch or let's make a dealski? i mean, it's... it's no contest. and then we follow our show with a real news hour. i talked it over with the secretary and she feels strongly that we need t
