SUMMARY:The Rise of Russia and China in the Western Balkans
DESCRIPTION:\nPlease join the Harriman Institute for a panel discussion on the role of Russia and China in the Western Balkans\, organized and moderated by Tanya Domi (Harriman Institute). \nAs the European Union has stepped back from the project of enlargement\, Russia and China have ramped up their engagement in the Western Balkans\, filling the geopolitical void left by the EU. During the past several years\, the United States has also reduced its engagement in the region\, along with the United Kingdom\, whose attention has been focused on Brexit. Furthermore\, no movement forward is expected during the remaining months of the Slovene presidency of the Council of the EU. Our panel brings together top Russian\, China\, and Balkan analysts to explore the dynamics of these superpowers who appear to be outflanking the EU at every turn. \n  \nSpeakers\nReuf Bajrovic\, Co-Chairman of US-Europe Alliance\nAllison Carragher\, Visiting Scholar at Carnegie Europe\nLjubomir Filipović\, Leader of the “May 21st” Civic Initiative\, Montenegro\nAmbassador Vesko Garčević\, Professor of the Practice of Diplomacy and International Relations at Boston University\nIvana Stradner\, Jeane Kirkpatrick Visiting Fellow at the American Enterprise Institute \nModerator: Tanya Domi\, Adjunct Professor of International and Public Affairs\, Columbia SIPA; Harriman Institute Associated Faculty \nWays to Attend\nRegister for Zoom Webinar \nWatch on YouTube \n\n\nEvent Contact Information:\nCarly Jackson\n(212) 854-6217\ncrj2116@columbia.edu\n
