Monday, 11/6 at 7:00pm
Since Vladimir Putin took power in Russia over 17 years ago, the relationship between the United States and this formerly sworn enemy has been in a state of flux. George W. Bush and Putin seemed to have a working relationship. Barack Obama and Putin did not. Now, under President Trump, the relationship is uncertain. This lecture by Dr. Ben Whisenhunt will examine Putin’s background, style of rule and overall relationship with the United States. Dr. Whisenhunt is a history professor at the College of DuPage who received his PhD. from UIC. Registration is suggested.
