The Soviet Union has pulled ahead of the U.S. not only in missiles and other strategic weapons. The Soviets continue to overpower the U.S. on the critically important diplomatic front. On it there is no balance of forces. According to FBI estimates, the number of Soviet employees in the U.S. today totals about 980. In dismal contrast, the number of U.S. government employees in the Soviet Union is a mere 320. Some 270 of the Soviets are employed by the United Nations and thus have special status. Of the remaining 710 Soviet civilians including typists and secre- taries nearly half are identified by the FBI as KGB agents of espionage, subversion, and disinformation. The Reagan Administra- tion should act to close the diplomacy gap which Moscow exploits so well. Washington should demand that at least 100 Soviet officials leave the U.S.
Experts on the history and cultures of this region will address questions about the war in Ukraine and describe the roles that Europe, the US, and NATO play in helping Ukraine.
As with so many other things, Russia followed its own path with pizza too. The country's first pizzerias did not offer traditional pizzas like Margarita or Pepperoni, but instead invented their own recipes. You will probably be surprised (and maybe frightened) to hear the list of flavors, but people who tried Soviet pizza do seem to remember it fondly.
