FOCUS: U.S. government vastly overestimated Russia’s capabilities

By Hoyt Tuggle | Jim Cofer’s recent article in GwinnettForum (April 29) on the Russian national mentality was “right on.” In 1995, Marie and I visited St. Petersburg. This was four years after the collapse of the Soviet Union and the purchase of government assets by friends of Boris Yeltsin, and others, for pennies on the dollar (rubles) and financed by the government in any case.
