In the wake of the one year-anniversary of the financial crisis, Richard Haass, president of the Council on Foreign Relations (CFR), will give an overview of the foreign policy challenges facing the United States including Iran’s nuclear program, the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan and the global economy.

Haass was also special assistant to President George H. W. Bush and senior director for Near East and South Asian affairs on the staff of the National Security Council. He is the author or editor of eleven books on American foreign policy, including his most recent War of Necessity, War of Choice: A Memoir of Two Iraq Wars.
