It's Not Magic, a Sixth Street podcast

Michael McFaul, Former United States Ambassador to Russia

Ambassador Michael McFaul joins us for a special episode from the Sixth Street Offsite in Austin, TX. He takes us back to his prescient warnings about the rise of Putin's autocracy in 2000. We hear about how Putin has changed since coming to power, what he's like in person, and the latest from leadership in Kyiv. We also discuss how to run an embassy, the value and limitations of historical analogues, and why the Secretary of State told him to get on Twitter. Learn more at https://sixthstreet.com/podcasts/
