and then stalin. there is a fairly typical propaganda poster of the 1930s, the farsighted leader of his people and there are some mugshots from his czarist police file reminding us that this was a man who was on the run from the czarist authorities, a terrorist, a bank rememberer,ob made himself into a leader of the most powerful countries in the world, a man who made a career of being underestimated. so three very different men who found themselves thrown together in the leadership of one of the most important alliances in history. so how did they get on? how did they use these messages? churchill was, as i said, a man of words, a man who wrote naturally, who talked naturally, he was the most verbose of the three. a man who wrote stalin long dispositions about policy all fed him interesting stories about the war. he understood that stalin was a military buff like he was, so the messages are often full of what happened -- what's happened in north africa, the latest bombing raids on germany, whatever,

anna is running interference saying we will think stalin is ganging up on him. and wanting to build that with stalin, with churchill earlier in the war, and a personal connection to stalin hoping to secure efforts of participation in postwar international order. >> one thing i love about your book, that you detail the intelligence operation and covert action and strategies for the conference, it is quite chilling, one of my favorite scenes in the book is when soviets tried to blackmail april herriman by saying they have compromising material. >> before the conference, and ostensibly to discuss operations and make sure everything is in order and him why appropriate relationships with some russian man which is definitely not true. herriman knows this is not the case and dismisses the man much to stalin and his inner circle's chagrin. he is not easily manipulated like that but it is funny to see this overtly by the soviets but one of the things that doesn't change over time. it requires healthy imagination to anticipate what they might do, d5 a sense of what ration

, and that the bond that fdr had with stalin would be something that would convince stalin to keep his word, which is tricky. there's some wonderful writing some george tenet around the time of this conference where he and chip bolin would go on to become weisman of the cold war but at this time he's a number two in his embassy in moscow and bold is there as the russian interpreter. we might as well carve the world up and call it a day, nothing we agree on that will make any difference. he says at least we have an obligation to try. you can see the writing on the wall. i do think stalin did like roosevelt personally and respected him enormously especially given that he was paralyzed and at such respect and admiration of the american public and many people didn't even realize his paralyzed. even if stalin would not act contrary to the interests of the soviet union, and so i think perhaps anna, she had a rosier view as did fdr about the commitment of the soviet union but she's also the least experienced of the three daughters in foreign policy and perhaps some of that shows while the oth

and back the bond that fdr had formed with stalin would be something that would convince stalin to keephich is tricky. there is wonderful writings from georgetown and around the time of the conference where he and chip bolin would go on to become Ãbthey are discussing saying we might as well roll it up and call her today because nothing we will agree on now will make any difference. we have an obligation to try. so you can see the writing on the wall and i think stalin did like roosevelt personally and respected him member normal essay especially since he was paralyzed had such a respect and Ãbmany people didn't realize he was paralyzed. even if stalin wasn't going to act contrary to the interests of the soviet union so i think perhaps anna, she had a worldview instead fdr about the commitment of the soviet union she's also experience with a three daughters in foreign policy. and some of that life experience shows there while the other two daughters are skeptical. >> susan burke asked, get it kathleen and anna had letters or diaries about yalta. >> i mention sarah's letters what started

and that the bonds that fdr had formed with stalin would be something that would convince stalin to keep his word and some wonderful writing from george tenet around the time of the conference when he and chip toland would be in the cold war but he is there at the conference as an interpreter. he said nothing we agree on now will make any difference but at least we have an obligation to try. so you can see the writing on the wall and i do think stalin did like him and respect him enormously especially given that he was paralyzed and had such respect and adoration by the public the defense stalin was contrary to the interests of the soviet union. i think perhaps anna had a rosier view as did fdr about recommitment to the soviet union but she is the most experience of their three daughters and foreign-policy and perhaps some of the life experience shows there while the other two are a bit skeptical about the agreements that were reached. >> a kathleen ann and i have letters or diaries about yeltsin? >> kathleen wrote many letters to her sisters and two former governments during war as

and that the bond that fdr had formed was stalin would be something that would convince stalin to keep his word. which is tricky. where he and chip boland are going to be part of the world war. but right now he is the number two in the u.s. embassy in moscow. and the ghost of the conference as an interpreter. i think they agree on now will make any difference and he said well at least it's the world's strongest democracy we have an obligation to try. and so you can see the writing on the wall. and i do think that stalin did like roosevelt personally and respected him enormously. especially given that he was paralyzing at such respect and admiration of the american public. many people need to realize he was paralyzed. but even if you like him personally's not going to act contrary to the interests of the soviet union. and so i think perhaps anna, she had a rosier view with fdr about the commitment of the soviet union. but she also has the least experience of the foreign dollar of the daughters in foreign policy i think the lack of experience shows there with the other two daughters are

there is a soviet child as well, not stalin's daughter svetlana. it's not allow her to interact with foreigners but the head brought his son who is part of the eavesdropping team. they've gone to the quarters of the british, the americans, his son is looking in on fdr in private quarters. all these generational aspects of the story as well. i think it is also fdr and churchill have close relationships through the war, special relationships built on their bonds, but at this point things are breaking down because fdr can see the shifting balance of power, britain is significantly weaker while the soviet union is significant we stronger so when sarah arrived at the rendezvous, they see fdr for the first time she senses something changed about him. he's not as close and warm as he once had been and she writes to her mother wondering whether it is his health, she doesn't know but is spot on but also perhaps has moved away a little from us which he has done and it is difficult for churchill to accept. he wants to have a private meeting with fdr, he allow

he first meets stalin, has his first meeting with stalin in that summer of 1945 and says to stalin he is honest, smart as hell that i can deal with him. he was pretty much wrong on all counts but fdr's death when it came was an awful fork in the road. he would have reacted to a usurping of eastern europe in an area where truman -- the other great turning point on the hungarian revolution, spontaneous revolution. people rose up in the streets, the military revolutionary, the key moments where crew show said we have to let somebody go, and the tanks were leaving and the next day november 1st, 1966, changes the mind and the americans do anything to help revolutionaries they would have done it with the revolution. if we let hungary go, we are going - the cancer will spread. the incredibly sad thing the eisenhower administration, rolling back against communism, and all of a sudden we can't do anything. >> host: all the guys you talk about started with such good intentions, the idea of america as the morally right upstanding savior and all of this went pear-shaped after a wildland participa

think of stalin who isn't in the book except in the influence of people. he isn't theatrical but they become anchors for the population and if you don't get rid of them very easily and also it's connected to corruption because they get away with what other people are too busy to get away with let's say they are divinely ordained with a national greatness and they are seen as pure and everyone around them is corrupt so they have a culture where they stand above everyone else. and then of course in terms of violence, they become the models for the instigators. they know how to kill or how to be a brute. you take what you want. so, trump's thing when he talks about you are a star you don't even have to ask. he said it in 2005 and it came back in 2016. a lot of people were mystified why it didn't end, why he got elected even after it came out because it didn't appeal to many people. when you are a star you don't have to ask. this is where this kind of glamour comes in. i thought that is what was missing in a lot of the accounts so i wanted to take it seriously

as you know they were the mouthpiece for stalin in 1932 and throughout the early stalin.y lied about the slaughter of the ukrainians. less than a decade later they were censoring the holocaust at the request of party of the franklin roosevelt administration. here we have two of the most horrific genocides, the new york times with the propagandist for stalin and it was involved in censorship when it comes to the holocaust. any other corporation in america would be viewed as a contemptible failed corporation, utterly and completely unreliable and here the new york times is said to be the gold standard for the media. isn't that the problem? >> that's right. what's even more amazing is those were the good old days in the new york times. now staffers run the new york times. the fact that the editors were allowing the staffers to attack the only fellow staffer who is willing to give a hearing to points of view that were outside the wild leftism of the new york times is pretty incredible. the new york times basically handed over editorship and she rules the roost over there. it'

and the people that she needed but then to say i didn't as for stalin but i did this for a cause.even in the nineties she said i still believe in the cause. like many old communist and better than she could come up with. >>'s at the time of the purchase ideologically committed communist would say things like you can't make an omelette without breaking up the eggs talking about the lives of two or 3 million victims sonja was able to come to that realization later in life. >> i think she was and she felt deeply troubled. but i think she had a certain survivor's guilt and often asked herself that how she has been spare but others hadn't but as a foreigner and a jew and was a spy, she was suspect. that was the target but then she never denounced anyone else. that is interesting for that survival. and then you survive by someone else but she never did and with that extraordinary loyalty among her friends and colleagues. >> a good question for you. and what is the most clever and what is your favorite? >> which is my favorite? eddie chapman he was an agent and proper the clerk and the c

that's not what these poison at all, a dino stalin well democrats don't agree to them. that's the way to do business around here. the lears view seems to be the only things that suld be considered in the next covid relief bill are items that republicans approve of. even if the needs of the country go way beyond what's on their narrow list. so i would plead again to the republican leader and to my colleagues on the other side, we need to come together. both sides both sides must be willing to compromise. what republicans in this chamber enjoy the majority, they must grapple with the fact that democrats hold a majority in the house. we cannot make along with the democrats in the house and, frankly, democrats votes in the senate because thereny are good number of republicans who will not vote for any proposal so we need a true bipartisan bill, not another round of partisan republican proposals put forward by the leader and then he makes take it or leave it demands and that's it. we need to come together and come to agreement that will not satisfy anyone of us completely bu

people famously said that he spoke better russian than stalin.that is not saying much since stalin was georgian and spoke with a heavy russian accent, excuse me, pro-russian with a heavy georgian accent. russians commented on his ability. >> many many years ago, i never heard from him. >> then he's not as smart as we think he is. >> i ran into a friend of his and he said that was unusual. >> yeah, it is. >> so he was a people person? >> no, i don't think he was a people person. he had a strong sense of obligation. when he talked, the last entry, all the things on his desk, he would generally answer letters and, people sent him manuscripts, he would generally read them and write detailed comments. he had a very strong sense of obligation. one final thing about the language, he became ambassador to belgrade, yugoslavia, from '61 to '63, and i understand croatia is significantly different than russian, but mastered it particularly well to give a public lecture in it. and norwegian, he spoke some french, so incredible language ability. >> maybe one l

people famously said that he spoke better russian than stalin.that's not saying much since stalin was georgian and spoke it with a heavy georgian accent. but he spoke flawless -- people -- russians commented on his ability with russia. >> i never heard from him and i ran into a -- >> he's not as smart as we think he is. >> i ran into a friend of his and he said that was unusual. he wasn't a people person? >> no, he had a strong sense of obligation. the last entry, all of the things on his desk, he would answer letters and people sent him manuscripts. he would write detailed comments. he had a very strong sense of obligation. just one final thing about the language, he became ambassador to belgrade, yugoslavia, and i understand that it is different from russia but he mastered the language sufficiently well to give a public lecture in it. he also had norwegian, spoke some french. credible language ability. >> one last question. >> one good one. >> question concerning -- [ inaudible ] i would like to elaborate on your question. you mentioned the fal

sending a german holiday fruitcake known as stalin to queen elizabeth of windsor castle or friends with one of the chefs their taste of the delicacy. along to the queen herself like so much of her windsor stuff is now the cake to the queen and members of the royal family with tea on christmas day. it's good enough for the queen i think business with a. 100000 kilometers an hour to reach mars. is at. the mission of the united arab emirates. 80 percent of the mission the scientists are women of. the country is entering a new era of. female scientists reaching. 3000. 60 minutes d.w. . what secrets lie behind. discover new adventures in 360 degree. and explore fascinating world heritage sites. world heritage 360 get the map now. the world population is increasing the climate is trying to it's getting warmer and there are going to be more and more places where you cannot grow traditional problems we have to fix that so the way to do that is to use the mob and tonight a modification methods to make that across it is one who loves anything we've gone by traditional to that ignore the place tha

it's stalin after hitler, not simple my hitler. was that your reading? >> yeah. roosevelt himself was worried that the internationalism wouldn't last and that after the end of the war, the u.s. would revert to its default position, which he took to be, isolationism, and after the end of the war, as you know, there was a demobilization, even tho the u.s. did keep forces abroad and even though there was bipartisan support for a new grand of what we now call liberal internationalism, the u.n. passed with the senate with very little objections. but you right after that that over the court of the late 1940s and 1950s the isolationists reappeared and dug in their heels. at first they -- the cold war, the onset of the cold war did push them to be more quiet but then when that cold war heats up and you get the korean war, and then we get the decision to deploy three divisions to europe in the early 1950s, people start to get worried and you see various congressmen, senator taft, for example, and others, say, hey, wait a minute. this is going too far. we don't want to go

part of it was stalin was not a big fan of mao's. when mao chive old to the soviet union, stalin mistreated him. he left them to cool his heels needed.he knew what mao mao needed military hardware and weapons. so it was a bad relationship from day one, a transactional relationship from day one and they were based on two very different ideas -- the rise of marksban proletariat of in central europe versus the rise of the peasants. x in central europe. marxist,id that, leninist, mao's a tongue -- they will tell you that it is grafted . the schools they went to in russia played a large role in the evolution of the chinese communist party. our next question. were there any notable figures that resisted the infiltration of communism into china? let me take that -- in whichperiod? there's a constant back and forth -- you have the world war you have aone has -- communist versus the nationalists and they were together twice. we tried to bring them back together in september of 1945. george c truman sent marshall, arguably the finest military

kaiser wilhelm, mussolini, hitler, stalin and his soviet successors. i'd like now to turn to sort of the meat of the book and look at a couple of important episodes in this history that i have written. i'd like to begin by turning to the first world war, which began in the summer of 1914. the u.s. entered the war in 1917. wars can do peculiar things to societies. world war i was no exception. it caused unsavory attitudes to bubble to the surface of american life. the german state and its people were portrayed in barbaric terms. german-americans and all things german ultimately would be scorned in this country. the german language was no longer taught in schools. german books were removed from library shelves. there were book burnings in america of german language books. more trivially, sauerkraut became liberty cabbage, hamburgers, liberty steak, german measles, well, yes, liberty measles. but more seriously, germans were tarred and feathered. they were beaten. a drunken mob lynched a german laborer in a small town in illinois. german music and musicia

it was such good quality that stalin and analysts believed it was all made up and that's untrue.one of the greatest sort of spies in history, a wastepaper basket because he didn't really trust spies. you have that balance the. >> good question here, how did you come across her children and would describe them? how would you describe them? >> it's fascinating really. the two of the three children were still alive, the two sons. one in his early 90s. in the telephone book, that's often how these things happen, if you get around enough, you find them. both the sun came in with another, the older son at that time, in his 20s, he came a little later. they were both from they were both on the left. they were very proud of their mother. i wondered how well it would be to a british writer turning out and saying i'm going to write about your mother's life. they were understandably initially very suspicious. didn't quite know what was going on. but i got to know them and after a while, i got to meet both of them. it has been a long project. they became very generous and they turned out to

american's distress intensified with the fear of soviet communism, there was a tendency to equate stalinn-'s rule with hitler. and americans were yet again forced to grapple with a crucial question. should artists who embraced anti-democratic ideas or who consorted with toxic regimes be banished? and this issue emerged with great intensity in stormy post war debates that involved a number of people. i document this in the book and i'll talk about one person here today. he was the pianist and soprano and conductor. their ties to naziism and their plans to come to the united states to perform created a heated response among musicians, government officials and thousands of citizens who believed that their presence on u.s. soil would contaminate american society. as i said, i want to talk some about the controversy. in the summer of 1948, the chicago symphony, one of the best orchestras in the country at that time and still, invited him to become its conductor for the 1949/50 season. the belief that his activities were inseparable would generate an impassioned response. they negotiated for q

it's hard work the other stalin has its price we have to earn it. it must be always use the bones of your hands or bend your fingers back again slowly. use the bones of your hands. this is like a massage. it doesn't take a lot of effort if it did we drop dead after 500 stolen a day. almost done. so if so 8 loaves he's taking his out of the oven so we can put on a santa. making store and is good exercise 1.8 kilograms in each hand in the new budget can be a frog. feel you have the grand finale icing sugar good thoughts enough to sugars good bottle with too much is on healthy. that's incredible this is not this is an original president. going from nearly had by the apprentice. night has fallen and it feels very romantic. i've driven a few kilometers out via the river from the east and this is the pinots district with its castle once upon the time it was the summer residence of the saxon kings. and now everything is lit up the light show is called christmas garden and it casts a magical glow over the park and castle. a 2 kilometer circular trail leads

others are more statuesque like military decal-- leaders or think of stalin. he had a gravitas, theatrical, but they all know they become these anchors for the population and that's also why when they leave they have the sense that you don't get rid of them easily and also they stay within the culture, so the reality is that, but it's also very connected to corruption because they become the man who gets away with what other men are too weak to get away with. they often have supernatural qualities, they are divinely ordained, connected to what we talked about before with national greatness and when dynamic is they are seen as pure and everyone else is seen as corrupt around them so they are good at having a culture where they stand above everyone else ended and of course in terms of violence they become the models are the instigator. they are the manly man who knows how to kill or no space on to take what you want. trumps thing when he talked about when you are star they let you do it any don't even have to ask. he said in 25 and eight came back to haunt him i

and yet, joe stalin, joseph stalin and the soviet union, actually posed a great risk to freedom, noty in central europe but western europe and across the world. and truman marshalled the resources and the support from republicans and democrats, alike, to actually stand up. and contain the soviet union spread and to ensure freedom in europe. and -- and created, really, more than any other president over the past 75 years, created the world that we live in today. >> you know, and it's interesting because there's ambivalence about him, too. right? there is hiroshima and nagasaki, you know, which one might argue was incredibly cruel to have done. we, the only country that's used nuclear weapons. but he also is somebody that did grow as president. contrast that with the current guy because he's not growing. >> well, i mean, it -- it's hard to contrast it with the current guy because truman believed in plain speaking. he said the buck stopped here. he actually liked making difficult decisions, and slept better at night after he -- he did what he thought was the right thing to do. he didn't

in 1947, he was faced with a crisis of josef stalin moving on greece, turkey, western europe which was. harry truman had to draw upon all the relationships he'd built up in the united states senate over the course of a decade. joe biden, of course, has been there three, four, was there for three or four decades. and by working with the republicans, isolationist republicans who had gotten into the majority for the first time in 14 years in january of 1947 and who really didn't want to help the democratic president. truman just stayed engaged. he kept working with republicans who had worked against him his entire life. he kept working with arthur vandenberg, created this extraordinary bipartisan relationship that helped pass the truman doctrine, that helped pass the marshall plan, that helped pass nato which basically pushed back on josef stalin and stopped soviet communism from spreading into central and western europe that helped rebuild the economies of europe which, of course, helped the united states because we had trading partners again. and in effect, that bipartisan coalition of

the near times, as you know, was the mouthpiece for stalin in 1932 and throughout the early stalinistslaughter of the ukrainians in less than a decade later "the new york times" was censoring the holocaust at the request and part of the franklin roosevelt administration but they pushed it to its back pages so here we to the most horrific genocides in world history and new york times was a propagandist for stalin and it was involved in censorship when it comes to the holocaust. any other corporation in america would be viewed as a contemptible, field corporation, utterly and completely unreliable and hear "the new york times" is said to be the gold standard for the media. isn't that the problem? >> that's right. what's even more amazing is those were the good days at "the new york times" but right now staffers run "the new york times". it's perfectly clear from barry's letter and full disclosure that i'm friends with her. the fact that the editors were allowing the staffers to attack the only fellow staffer who is willing to give a hearing to points of view that were outside of the wil

when stalin got control. thank you very much for all these personal stories and the connection to this history. i had to make some tough decisions in terms of what i wanted to include in the book because this is such a long history and it's not a very long book and there were limitations in terms of pages and length. is from 1798 to the , part of those decisions were not tracing necessarily what happened to those who were deported. happened toout what emma goldman and alexander berkman but i found i had to be about taking those stories too far because i would not do what i needed to be able to do and provide the details and discussion of the law within some of these constraints. i will say something that is very interesting is that those who faced deportation were not whoys deported and those are unable to be deported they weree country originally from refused to accept them or close their borders. so some had to remain in the united states. others, under threat of deportation decided they would rather risk p

between the united states in the soviet union was already jeopardizing international cooperation in 949 stalin withdrew the us s. r. and the east european communist bloc from the w. h. could we be demanded exception to this is you just said to me this is i think we have other surely. as you want to acknowledge the big issue of. the conflict of the 2 world powers was also a battle of completely different ideologies a capitalist designed business a state run health care system started. success and nikita khrushchev was eager to seek peaceful coexistence with america and in 1955 he also decided that the soviet union should rejoin the w 8 that created a moment always in world history which well the show to step onto that stage and it seized the opportunity with one of its greatest accomplishments of not its greatest accomplishment which was the campaign to eradicate smallpox worldwide. well relations between the 2 superpowers remain tense in berlin and cuba inside the w.h.o. they were hand in hand my 1st international activity was working with the smallpox eradication for 2 years during that progr

example that if we take strict measures there is a high likely lose that we are able to bring numbers stalin and that is what needs to happen at the moment our health care system is really under stress we face really critical situation especially in the eastern parts of germany and the only saying what is basically left is that we help each other in different regions and set we take over patients from one region or one city to another because to help get sick there is in many parts of germany isn't able anymore to take care of any emergency just missed it i mean we mentioned that you're a doctor here and the medical director of the berlin fire department so you are also directly involved in the fight against covert 19 could you share with us your experience during the last few months. well i think we were kind of a champion in the 1st wave in the spring but we yab kind of. missed it in the summer to take some measures which were necessary strict measures to protect vulnerable groups and to prepare for the winter season and now we are behind and sings are really serious especially in the in c

in certain parts of the world and stalins, 16 year olds can vote, they can make a decision tree. they can be members of the armed forces. they can,, they can marry with parental consent and it will. i'm one o., the 16 year olds to make very sure positions, in my opinion, really just to take this old fashioned view that children on some of the shuttles a little more to the right to move people from solution successfully. this for me, the divine a foti just because they gave birth to the channel to see more 1000000 cases misconceived when a child says to their parents, i believe that i'm a girl, even if that child is 8 years old and in their physically a male, the current prevailing practice is to allow that child to determine what they want to do going forward to say anything different is considered abuse and abuse is being conflated and being very hard used in a way that's harmful to actual children who are being abused. these are things that a 12 year old in a 13 year old don't have the capacity to understand a longstanding implications of in. so how do we provide a way out for

he first meets stalin he is honest and smart as hell his death when it came was an awful fork in the road and he would have reacted in a way where to my mind was a deer in headlights they joined the revolutionary and there was the key moment where he said we have to let hungary go and so they were leaving and literally the very next day he changed his mind and thinks if they were to do anything to help the revolutionaries, it would be done by now. if we let hungary go, it is going to spread. the incredibly sad thing it rolls back against communism and encouraging people to sell and finally this happened and then all of a sudden they went we can't and so they were crushed. they ended up participating in pretty horrible things letting down legitimate movements. do you end up judging the amendment you write about? >> i don't. i mean,, i see it as it is very easy to do that to kind of stand in judgment i think also what happens it's very gradual, a very gradual process. right after the war, they start working with the former military intelligence offices because they are the ones that kn

joe staline on the side who's his deputy and friend, ain't. most people are saying who the hell is josh hawley. nobody knows who he is. let's look at the senators up for re-election in 2022. they have a demonstration. they have to have a full participant. these are all the people who think that being with donald trump can help them in 2025. here's the list of people ro we think are probably being named for. no one knows who he look for. rand paul, i guess he got punched by his neighbor. marco rubio, again, who prays on twitter. mike lee and ken cruise. if they're trying to replace donald trump in your mind as somebody from that expolitics? yes, you always want to be the new person at the time. all the others have been beat by yorch holl way,' pa trish shan have had had their binges clipped, they've been punched in the hawley. you see him moving successfully and the irony and dehe lewded about that long. takes a remarkable hutzpa and make it about josh hawley. that's what he is doing. within republican politics he might be doing it very success

32 years or imagined 42 years , the more theatrical he became also like for the military think of stalin and the gravitas. he's not theatrical but they are the anchors for the population so why when they leave you don't get rid of them very easily. so virility is connected to corruption because they become the men who get away with what other men are too weak to get away with. they have supernatural qualities they are divinely ordained. like a national greatness in one dynamic is it's very pure but everyone else is seen as corrupt around them so they are very good to have a culture to stand above everybody else. and then of course in terms of violence they are the model for those instigators in the manly man who knows how to kill or how to be a brute and take what you want so with trump when he talked about you don't even have to ask you do what you want. he said in 2005. people were mystified why he got elected after that came out because it is an appeal to many people when you are a star you don't have to ask and then they channel aspirations of men and women and this is where the glam

two decades now in fact, when i say prudent it's the longest serving leader of russia since joseph stalin. and at page june 8, 1967 he could surpass them. >> it would bewith the constitutional amendment that was passed , it was 2036, that gets a lot of runway. he's basically president. >> interestingly enough, he has not used that time in power to reform russia's economy. it remains a petro state, remain highly dependent on natural resourceextraction even now . >> there's a cost discussion about reform. but the oil and gas revenues are very attractive. russia isn't more diversified. it's the largest exporter of pete in the world, oil and gas is at the part of it and i have an anecdote where i asked actually putting about diversifying his economy. but i mention the word shale. he got quite upset with me and started shouting. so it's not a comfortable position to be in their talk about reform but it just. and people keep thinking reform will begin, so far it has not. >> what's interesting is you see obviously a very different course taken by china just across the border and i'm not aware of

and that stalin is a latter-day hitler. the soviets are the same as the germans and we've got to turn from fighting one war to fighting the other almost immediately and so what if some of these displaced persons were nazi collaborators or were anti-soviet, fought against the red army? so what if they join? they are anti-communists and we need them now. let'sforget the past and let's move forward . and this happens everywhere. there's a story i tell which just stays with me. a group of minors in england, the miners are left-wing but it doesn't really matter, they discover that the latvians, displaced persons were working with them in the minds had ss tattoos and they threatened to go on strike . when this goes back to the government, a labor government, the labor government says well, what will do is the waffen ss soldiers will keep them out of the minds and we will put them injobs where they don't have to take off their shirts and no one will see their tattoos in 1915, 1951 . the americans changed their regulation to let in

literature, a great deal of very thoughtful scholarship that suggests that truman did as much as stalin did, maybe even more, to bring about the worsening of u.s.-soviet relation that is roosevelt had tried so hard to keep together, and that he was not particularly sophisticated in his reading of soviet insecurity, soviet weak innocences. everything he saw was soviet threats, soviet dangers. and i think there's some merit to that. i think that part of it is that the domestic politics of being anticommunist were very powerful, very -- it forced his hand to some extent. so the long run is that it's a mixed legacy but it's an enormously consequential one. and i also believe that truman was as honest and as transparnt a figure as we've had in the white house. and so that alone is comforting. so in a whether you disagree or agree with his decisions you can always track them down. add one more thing, because it bears on the whole story of the cold war. truman is the only president still to have dropped two atomic bombs. and now that's another factor, that has attracted a great deal of attenti
