Is There an Honorable Way Out of Iraq? Apr. 25

On Tuesday, April 25, Les Gelb, president emeritus of the Council on Foreign Relations and Chairman of the Foreign Policy Leadership Council, will discuss the increasingly complex policy choices surrounding the war in Iraq.

Three years into the war, two general approaches to the problems in Iraq have taken center stage. We are told that the United States must either "stay the course" or pull out as soon as possible. But are there other possibilities? Can the United States emerge from Iraq successfully and with its standing in the international community intact?

 Gelb will consider these issues at a discussion beginning at noon in room 1501 of the International Affairs Building. Richard Betts, director of the Saltzman Institute of War and Peace Studies, will moderate.

Reservations are required and can be made by emailing djm2121@columbia.edu.
