Yet many American critics of Trump have gotten into baiting him as Putin’s flunky while goading him to prove otherwise. Whatever our differences, we must reduce rather than increase the risks of nuclear war. So, the imminent meeting between Trump and Putin will affect the chances that the young people we love -- and so many others around the world -- will have a future. No matter how much we might wish to forget or deny it, we are tied together by a fraying thread of relations between two nations that possess 93 percent of the world’s nuclear weapons. Wouldn’t it be much better for the meeting between Trump and Putin to bring Washington and Moscow closer to détente rather than bringing us closer to nuclear annihilation?
