Former REST student Hayley Arlin and co-author Ariel Cohen explain the policy challenges the Biden administration faces with Russia and other nations.

Russian officials described American democracy as 'limping on both feet' in the aftermath of the siege, a crisis many believe was triggered by Russia-promoted misinformation campaigns on social media. While Mikhail Gorbachev suggested relations could be salvaged, President Biden's support for Ukraine is a Washington concern the Kremlin will have to address, while the two nuclear powers tackle the arms control agreements."
