 Mission To Moscow
Putin has articulated a set of principles to enable Russia to resume the role of a great power and "to uphold its national interests in the international arena." The Clinton administration seems to believe that reform of Russia's domestic institutions is the major solvent to bring about stable Russo-American relationships.
For four centuries, imperialism has been Russia's basic foreign policy as it has expanded from the region around Moscow to the shores of the Pacific, the gates of the Middle East and the center of Europe, relentlessly subjugating weaker neighbors and seeking to overawe those not under its direct control.
President Clinton has implied another major objective on his visit to Moscow: a breakthrough on arms control, specifically regarding the ABM treaty, missile defense and reductions of offensive weapons.

Among the many films produced by Hollywood for the wartime effort, Mission to Moscow (1943) stands out for the boldness and controversial nature of its message, as well as its unique attempt to recreate recent history in fictionalized form.
Given the inherent logistical difficulties in casting a film of this sort, it is hardly surprising that Mission to Moscow is a hodgepodge of foreign accents.
