About the Event
Does democracy promotion still have a place in US-African relations? How does the US military keep faith with partners around the globe after losing Afghanistan? And can empowering other nations’ military forces serve as a blueprint for safeguarding global security?
Join FPRI and the US Army War College’s Eisenhower Series College Program for a wide-ranging and open-minded discussion about the role of soft power mechanisms in American foreign policy and opportunities to continue upholding the principles of the liberal international order.
