Online Event: U.S. Grand Strategy in the Middle East

Monday, June 22, 2020 2:00 pm - 3:00 pm
Download Transcript

While prominent voices in Washington have argued that U.S. interests in the Middle East are dwindling and will require the United States to “do less” there, Jake Sullivan argued in a recent Foreign Affairs article that the United States should be more ambitious using U.S. leverage and diplomacy to promote regional stability. 

Sullivan will join us for a discussion of the future of U.S. grand strategy in the Middle East. Throughout the event, participants are encouraged to submit questions to the guest, Jake Sullivan, and host, Jon B. Alterman, via Zoom. Questions can be submitted in advance via the link above. 

This event is made possible through general support to CSIS.

Featuring
Jake Sullivan
Nonresident Senior Fellow, Geoeconomics and Strategy Program, Carnegie Endowment for International Peace
CSIS Experts
Jon B. Alterman
Senior Vice President, Zbigniew Brzezinski Chair in Global Security and Geostrategy, and Director, Middle East Program
