Omaha Ambassadors Forum 2017
The University of Nebraska Omaha is honored to present the 2017 Omaha Ambassadors Forum, supported by Burlington Capital International, The American Academy of Diplomacy, and International Studies & Programs. The focus of the 2017 Omaha Ambassadors Forum this Spring will be on the Diplomatic Challenges of the new administration.
The new administration of President Trump is facing a raft of diplomatic challenges around the world. But underlying many of the specifics is a basic dilemma that many of the principles and values that have guided US foreign policy for over 70 years are now challenged. What alliances are worth keeping? How different must our assumptions and policies be from the those that have guided administrations of both parties? Join us for a panel discussion on this and other emerging topics with distinguished Ambassadors Ronald Neumann, John Beyrle, Avis T. Bohlen, and Thomas Hubbard, moderated by Tom Gouttierre, Dean Emeritus of International Studies & Programs and Director Emeritus of Center for Afghanistan Studies at UNO.
