On the death of Ambassador Dobrynin

A fine obituary for Anatoly Dobrynin, who died earlier in the month, can be found at:

It pays attention to his role as an important "back channel" between the White House and the Kremlin during the Cold War, which allowed the superpowers to resolve many contentious issues away from the glare of publicity.
