Thank you for staying tuned to Talk Tonight. Our special guest this evening is a graduate of West Point. He was a former intelligence officer and retired lieutenant general who served under two presidents. This man is also an expert on Russia and frequently lectures at universities across the nation. He is here this evening promoting his new book, Behind the Kremlin, which gives us insight on Russian politics. It is currently on the best seller’s list. It’s my plesure now to welcome Mr. Ivan Strand.
