On Friday, December 13 at 10 a.m. ET, the Atlantic Council will host US Secretary of State Antony J. Blinken for an #ACFrontPage conversation on the past, present, and future of US foreign policy during what he has described as “a new age in international affairs.”  

The United States confronts major wars in Ukraine and the Middle East, tensions in the Indo-Pacific, and increasing alignment among China, Russia, Iran, and North Korea. In conversation with PBS NewsHour’s Nick Schifrin, Blinken will reflect on his four-year tenure as America’s top diplomat and the administration’s responses to a range of international crises. He will share his insights on the global forces shaping the future and the most urgent challenges that lie ahead for the United States and its allies and partners. 

This edition of #ACFrontPage will take place at the Atlantic Council’s new global headquarters in Washington, DC. The event will be livestreamed on Atlantic Council TV, YouTube, Facebook, and X. To join us in person or virtually, please complete the registration form.
