Tuesday, April 97-8 p.m. ET Fashioning a Foreign Policy for Today's WorldWith Charlie Skinner '69 Sponsored by the Class of 1969 Reunion Committee There are key concerns around China, Russia, and the Middle East. Addressing these issues goes beyond specific conflicts like Putin's invasion of Ukraine or the Hamas-Israel war. Realists stress that China has become our main competitor. The Class will focus on these three problems.
