Russia, NATO And A New 'Cold War' (Tom Ashbrook, On Point)

No sensible person who lived through the Cold War would want to go back to that. High tension. Hair triggers. Nuclear menace. Fear. And no one is saying they want to go back. But the news has put Cold War shivers in the air. Russia flying bombers around Europe, bragging on its nuclear might, announcing 40 new inter-continental ballistic missiles. The US sending new tanks, armored vehicles and more to Eastern Europe. B-52s to the Baltics. NATO ramping up readiness. And then there’s China. This hour On Point: Cold War echoes in a time of peace, and what they mean. / Tom Ashbrook
