Event Description: Join us for a timely discussion with Carr Center Senior Fellow and former Executive Director of Human Rights Watch, Kenneth Roth, as he analyzes the far-reaching implications of the Trump administration’s foreign policy in the Middle East—particularly its stance on Israel/Palestine and the proposed vision for Gaza.
This conversation will explore the legal frameworks that challenge the proposed approach, delve into the complex political realities on the ground, and examine the potential consequences for the broader Israeli-Palestinian conflict.
Moderated by Carr Center Faculty Director, Mathias Risse, and Carr Center Middle East Programming Associate, Khaled Emam.
