Midnight in Moscow : a memoir from the front lines of Russia's war against the West Cover Image Book Book

Midnight in Moscow : a memoir from the front lines of Russia's war against the West / John J. Sullivan, Former U.S. Ambassador to Russia ; foreword by General James Mattis.

Sullivan, John Joseph, 1959- (author.). Mattis, James N., 1950- (author of foreword.).

Summary:

For weeks before the invasion of Ukraine, U.S. Ambassador to Russia John Sullivan was warning that it would happen. When troops finally crossed the border, he was woken in the middle of the night by an employee at Embassy Moscow with a prearranged code. The signal was even more bracing than the cold of that February night: it meant that Sullivan needed to collect his bodyguards and get to the embassy as soon as possible. The war had begun, and U.S.-Russia relations would never be the same. In Midnight in Moscow, Sullivan offers a memoir of his last post, as well as a broader argument about how our relationship with Russia has deteriorated over the past three years and where it's going.
