Foreign Policy Alert No. 42, June 9, 1999

Administration Fought Intelligence Reporting on Russian Corruption
The failure of U.S. policy toward Russia rests in large part on a refusal by policy makers to accept intelligence that clashed with their visions, illusions, political and financial interests, and crony relationships.
