Great speaker & speech — timely topic. I would appreciate hearing Dr. Weber again. Dinner was delicious! Enjoyed open-air patio adjacent to dining room — perfect for socializing.

Dr. Weber was an intelligent, engaging speaker who truly informed us with "inside knowledge" of the mind of Putin and the status of the Ukraine standoff. His extemporaneous speech demonstrated his total command of the subject matter, and his time spent living in Russia underscored his personal understanding of the Russian mentality.

I'm so glad I attended to hear this talk. It was so informative, and he did a great job of delivering the message of what is happening in the Ukraine and Putin's thinking of what Russia is thinking.

Professor Webber's content and presentation was excellent as was the food. This was an eye opener on Russia and Putin. One of the best speeches and imparting of speaker's knowledge of the subject.

Those involved in finding the speaker and presenting the program were excellent as was Dr. Weber. He presented a complex picture very well, including some humor, which added to a wonderful presentation. I think everyone there now has a much better picture of Russia and Putin. Moreover, as the picture seems to change, Dr. Weber gave us insight on how to view changes, particularly Putin's changes. Thanks for a great evening. Rick Stein

This one-hour presentation with Q&A was outstanding, providing the audience with a very objective view of current Russian foreign policy, especially with respect to Ukraine, the US and the NATO alliance, prefaced by the historical background of the Russian Empire and the USSR, and more importantly how Mr. Putin gained complete dictatorial power during his current 20-year reign. The speaker also provided his view of the mindset of President Vladimir Putin and current US foreign, military and cyber policy – in particular under the current Biden administration -- and likely near term military moves by Putin (who would best manage the risk outcomes of any Ukraine invasion by acting sooner than later).
