THE TROUBLED MIDDLE EAST:
IS THERE A SOLUTION?

St. John the Evangelist’s Kiney Hall  625 111th Avenue No.  North Naples

Barbara Slavin (pictured left) and Robin Wright (pictured below) will address this enduring problem on Monday, March 23, 2015  3:45 and 7:30 pm.

These two dynamic experts will help us re-draw the map of the Middle East to include the many trouble spots that we are finding as the main focus of our news each day. As ISIS dominates and draws other radical groups into the fold, we are watching Iraq crumble, Syria disappear into rubble, and the United States inevitably drawn into the conflict. Meanwhile, the West continues to negotiate with Iran in hopes of achieving a solid agreement.   

Robin Wright is a Senior Fellow and Woodrow Wilson International Scholar. Barbara Slavin is a correspondent for Al Monitor and Senior Fellow at the Atlantic Council. We look forward to welcoming them back to Naples.
