national security reached a majority of 52% for the first time. Recent events such as the Anti-Magnitsky bill, the Boston Marathon bombing, annexation of Crimea by the Russian Federation, the Syrian Civil War, the allegations of Russian interference in the 2016 United States elections, the mistreatment of LGBT people in Russia following the passage of a 2013 anti-LGBT propaganda law in the country, the seizure and destruction of banned Western food imports in Russia starting in August 2015, and the alleged collusion between Donald Trump's presidential campaign and Russia are many examples of events which have been deemed to have caused a rising negative impression about Russia in the United States. 2001 to Russian reset In 2005, scholars Ira Straus and Edward Lozansky described negative coverage of Russia in US media, contrasting sentiment in media coverage with largely positive sentiment of the American public and US government.
