Please join the CSIS International Security Program on Tuesday, May 28 at 4:00 p.m. EDT for a conversation with David Sanger, Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist and White House and national security correspondent for The New York Times, and Dr. Seth G. Jones, CSIS senior vice president, Harold Brown Chair, and ISP director, about Sanger's newest book, New Cold Wars: China's Rise, Russia's Invasion, and America's Struggle to Defend the West. The discussion will be followed by a book signing and reception.

New Cold Wars is a fast-paced account of America’s plunge into simultaneous confrontations with two very different adversaries. For years, the United States was confident that the newly democratic Russia and increasingly wealthy China could be lured into a Western-led order that promised prosperity and relative peace—so long as they agreed to Washington’s terms. By the time America emerged from the age of terrorism, it was clear that this had been a fantasy. Based on a remarkable array of interviews with top officials from five presidential administrations, U.S. intelligence agencies, foreign governments, and tech companies, Sanger unfolds a riveting narrative spun around the era’s critical questions: Will the mistakes Putin made in his invasion of Ukraine prove his undoing and will he reach for his nuclear arsenal—or will the West’s famously short attention span signal Kyiv’s doom? Will Xi invade Taiwan? Will both men deepen their partnership to undercut America’s dominance? And can a politically dysfunctional America still lead the world?

This event is made possible through general support to CSIS.
