Ignorance and arrogance describes the entire Clinton crowd, not just Talbot (pron. "tall butt").
Wouldnt say that, he seems highly intelligent but totally full of himself, but I think that it’s obvious that he should have been aware, and the WH should have been aware of what can happen when you are dealing with the Soviet/Ruskies or the ChiComs, espionage is always a possibility.
That would be very interesting to find out.
Didn’t Strobe’s old man have some big time commie connections?
Looks like the gremlins fixes the htlm boo boo, thanks!!
I think his parents were part of the world federalist movement, but cant swear to it.
Thanks, AG

Strobe Talbott: Russia’s Man in Washington
by Kenneth R. Timmerman
This does give a year that Talbott went to Russia from Oxford but no mention of Clinton.
ROFL! DFU needs to see this.

"As Strobe Talbott explains in his book, The Russia Hand, “Before his presidency, Clinton’s (foreign policy) claims extended to no more than an Oxford essay on the possibilities of political reform in the USSR, and an early trip to the country.” "
"That storied trip took place in the summer of 1969 when Clinton and Talbott, Oxford roommates, traveled together to Moscow. It was on that trip that Talbott was recruited by Victor Louis, the KGB’s infamous “talent scout,” leading him to become the Kremlin’s “most trusted friend” in Washington. Then, in the early 1970s, Talbott returned to Moscow as a correspondent for Time Magazine. It was during those years that he became closely allied with an up-and-coming Yeltsin partisan named Anatoly Chubais."
It was amateur hour for 8 long years ...
