With increasing green-on-blue attacks in Afghanistan, conflict continuing in Syria and Gaza, island disputes in Asia, and increasing cyberthreats, the Obama administration will have to contend with and prioritize a wide-ranging set of national security issues over the next four years. How will the U. S. strengthen existing alliances and forge new partnerships in an effort to remain secure? How will the U. S. balance national security priorities with the domestic agenda amidst a recovering economy? These are some of the issues that will be discussed at the program.
