We welcome Jane Ferguson, foreign correspondent for PBS NewsHour and author of No Ordinary Assignment.
With the Middle East already at a crossroads, the attack on October 7 by Hamas on Israel upended the region and the world. Join us for a conversation with Jane Ferguson, foreign correspondent for PBS NewsHour and author of No Ordinary Assignment. She’ll discuss the latest developments in the conflict, the challenges of potential escalation, and the geopolitical implications for the region. What are the new prospects for peace in the region? What role does the U.S. have to play?
