SUMMARY:The US role in the world: Ukraine\, Russia\, Taiwan & China
DESCRIPTION:Centennial Series Strategic Issues Forum\nThe World Affairs Council is thrilled to launch its Centennial Series under the theme 100 Years of Global Issues – Looking Back and Look Forward – History Repeating Itself with this important strategic issues forum. \n \n\nEvent Details: \nThis will be a forum about strategic issues for the United States relating to the war in Ukraine\, including especially the possible scenarios on how the war will could end and what its each of those endings could mean for Russia’s and China’s relationships with the U.S. and Europe. A related issue – reparations – also touches on a topic of a speech given during the inaugural year for the predecessor of the World Affairs Council in 1923 about WWI reparations. Sen. Portman\, who prior to his retirement in January served on the Senate Foreign Relations Committee\, will share his views on these important topics followed by an opportunity for attendees to present their questions. \n**Space is limited. Register early.** \nSen.
