The incoming Administration of President-elect Joe Biden will face daunting challenges at home and abroad.
The new President will doubtless have to prioritize domestic affairs, among which a raging pandemic and an economy on the verge of recession.
Meanwhile, the international environment has become more perilous for the United States and its interests abroad.
How will Biden's national security team transition away from the tenets of America First?
What policy dynamic might one expect between and Congress, particularly if Republicans retain their majority in the Senate? How will US interests and policy prospects play out in regions like the Black Sea and Eastern Mediterranean?
What will "a foreign policy of responsible global engagement that most Americans support, that draws the right lessons from our past mistakes, that steers between the equally dangerous shoals of confrontation and abdication, and that understands the difference between self-interest and selfishness' (Anthony Blinken) mean for this part of the world?
Of what will its success consist?
To answer these and other questions the Dukakis Center will convene a panel of experts in regional affairs on Monday, December 7, 2020, at 7 PM (GMT +2).
