Asia-Pacific, Diplomacy, Europe, Power & Security, Russia , The Global Cable The Enduring Power of Alliances with Alexander Vershbow

This week's episode of The Global Cable features Ambassador Alexander ('Sandy') Vershbow, one of our Distinguished Visiting Fellows this year.  A career diplomat since 1977, Vershbow was U.S. Ambassador to Russia and the Republic of Korea, and served in a range of senior roles in Washington, including the White House’s National Security Council. He was the first American to hold the position of Deputy Secretary General of NATO, from 2012 to 2016.

On The Global Cable, Ambassador Vershbow talks about why alliances are still valuable and powerful in a fractured world, what it was like to work with Vladimir Putin, and what NATO can do to meet its biggest challenges in the months ahead.
