| Summary/Abstract |
AT THE turn of the 21st century, Russian-American relations were characterized by a flurry of activity from political elites and diplomats. For example, in the course of a single year, from September 1999 to September 2000, Vladimir Putin, as prime minister and then as president of Russia, and US President Bill Clinton participated in multiple high-level meetings together, including an APEC summit, a G8 summit, and the Millennium Summit put on by the United Nations in New York.
