... that ...? "That at the height of the Cold War two Americans traveled through the Soviet Union's most secret "
Spy City" causing an international crisis?"
ALT1:... that during the height of the
Cold War an American visiting Russia received a seven-year sentence after his friend testified against him? "

Imaginelenin: This DYK won't pass unless you show the reviewer exactly where the "international crisis" is in the article, and which source shows it. ALT1 can be found in
