U.S. Strikes Assad: Toward a New Syria Policy?

SETA Foundation Posted On April 11, 2017

Event Details

  • Date: April 13, 2017 2:30 pm – 5:00 pm
  • Venue: Capital Hilton
  • Categories: upcoming event

On April 7, 2017, the United States conducted unilateral strikes against the Assad regime’s military assets. The strikes came in response to a chemical attack by regime forces against the town of Khan Sheikhoun. It marked the first direct U.S. action against the Assad regime since the start of the Syrian civil war. Given the limited nature of these strikes, it is not entirely clear whether the Trump administration’s response will lead to a broader change in U.S. policy on Syria.

We are pleased to invite you to a keynote address by H.E. Fikri Isik, Defense Minister of Turkey, followed by a panel discussion, “U.S. Strikes Assad: Toward a New Syria Policy?”
