Michael Kofman is one of the nation's leading experts on Putin's plans to regain the global status he feels the US stripped from Russia in the 1990s. Mike will take our members on a journey inside Russia's spoiler tactics in Syria, Ukraine, the middle east and now North Korea, election interference plans for 2020, its grand ambitions in the Arctic, and more—perspectives you will get nowhere else in the Desert.
 
Mike comes to us from CNA, professional home of our great N Korea speaker Ken Gause. Mike was born in Ukraine, speaks fluent Russian, and travels the world to truly understand the inner workings of Russia's plans to disrupt the western democracies. His will be a riveting and—according to Ken—highly entertaining presentation.
