On the Power Vertical Podcast this week, host Brian Whitmore hosts an all-start lineup of guests to break it all down: Michael Carpenter, who served as the U.S. National Security Council's Senior Director for Europe, US Ambassador to the OSCE, and Deputy Assistant Secretary of Defense for Russia, Ukraine, and Eurasia; and Max Bergmann, a former U.S. State Department official who served, among other posts, as a member of the Secretary of State’s Policy Planning Staff and as a speechwriter for former Secretary of State John Kerry.
