Sports Fridays: Cold War Sports Diplomacy

  • America House Kyiv 6 Mykoly Pymonenka Street Kyiv, 02000 Ukraine (map)

Join us this week at America House Kyiv as we continue our weekly sports programming. On December 12th at 18:30, we'll be focusing on how the United States attempted to gain influence throughout the world during the Cold War, through the lens of sports. With the help of Denys Polubinskiy from the Ministry of Youth and Sports, we'll take a look at the spread of baseball throughout the Pacific, American football in Europe, and the Olympics as another battleground between the US and the USSR.
