Confirmed that I am on the Kremlin's sanction lists and cannot travel to Russia.

Was told that I am the Kremlin's sanctions list because of my close affiliation with Obama. The U.S. sanctioned Russians close to Putin.

To the best of my knowledge, George Kennan was the last U.S. ambassador to USSR/Russia to be banned from traveling there. Good company!

Hope that I am not on the Russia travel ban list forever. Since 1983, I've been living in and traveling to that country.

I look forward to the day when I can host Vladislav Surkov at Stanford, and I can lecture again at my alma mater, Moscow State University.

I found out about my travel ban when I tried to get a visa to travel to Moscow next month to do Clinton transition work. No longer needed!
