Cumming Meeting Room

Great Decisions is America's largest discussion on world affairs. Forsyth County Public Library and the University of North Georgia (UNG) will present information and lead discussions on a range of fascinating and timely geopolitical topics selected by the Foreign Policy Association. 

This week’s topic is American Foreign Policy in the Middle East: Taking Stock and Looking Ahead presented by Dr. Jon Miner.

The war in Gaza has brought the region to a crossroads. What are the possible outcomes of the war, and how might the United States use its influence to shape a long-term settlement that leaves both Israel and the Palestinians in a better position? How might Arab states in the wider region be brought into a settlement? What are America’s interests in the Middle East and how can it advance them?

For additional information and resources on American Foreign Policy in the Middle East: Taking Stock and Looking Ahead, please visit the Foreign Policy Association website.
