      Thanks to Charlie for this amazing 1993 interview with former Ambassador Kennan to the USSR.

      His comments about not forcing democracy on the rest of the world and not lecturing about human rights (and using it as a foreign policy sledgehammer) while setting an example instead, carry such wisdom and nuance... (Policy suggestions that seem to have been 99% ignored by various Administrations.)

      Please consider posting the entire 1993 segment online, if possible.
