Washington Metro Oasis presents: President Biden and the European Alliance
I will be lecturing at the Washington Metro Oasis this September.
Description
The European Alliance has been one of the key elements in U.S. national security policy since World War II. But the Trump administration clearly worsened the transatlantic alliance. This lecture will discuss the importance of the alliance and President Biden’s ability to rebuild it. The proper role for NATO will be assessed.

I believe it is important to understand the meaning and implications of Kirby’s callous and callow remarks.
