Join New York University's Jordan Center for the Advanced Study of Russia and Columbia's Harriman Institute for a panel discussion about the ongoing revelations surrounding Russian interference in the 2016 presidential election. 

This event is part of the New York Russia Public Policy Seminar, co-sponsored by The Harriman Institute of Columbia University and the New York University Jordan Center for the Advanced Study of Russia. The joint initiative, supported by the Carnegie Corporation of New York, establishes a regular forum for academics and professionals in New York city to engage with pressing issues informing U.S.-Russia relations. 

Perhaps no single event in recent memory has had such an effect on – and continues to have the potential to affect – U.S.-Russian relations then the ongoing allegations of Russian interference in the 2016 United States Presidential Elections.  From secret meetings at Trump Tower to Facebook ads and bots to FBI wiretaps and raids, this story seems to take new twists and turns almost weekly.
