Successive American administrations have attempted to pivot away from the Middle East for decades, or been drawn into vortexes from which they cannot extricate themselves. Rarely has that been more true than today. What are the implications for the regional actors, and for their friends and adversaries of this current and more profound turmoil? Retired Ambassador to Yemen, Barbara Bodine, joins CLS, in partnership with The World Affairs Council, to share her first-hand insight of the current landscape of the Middle East. 

Free to WACC & CLS Members, $15 General Admission. For more information regarding speaker, Barbara Bodine, click here .
