Bring your lunch and learn about foreign policy challenges facing the country's next president.
The successor to Joe Biden as this country’s 47th president will be confronted with a seemingly endless list of foreign policy challenges. From Russian aggression in Eastern Europe to apparently intractable violence in the Middle East, from a confident and rising China to climate change-related crises to an oft-apathetic American public, many sleepless nights are in store for the next resident of 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue. This talk will examine these and other likely international headaches our next commander-in-chief will face.
Robert "Bob" Beck retired to Peterborough in 2020 with his wife, Meg, after a 30+ year career overseas serving in U.S. embassies in Europe, the Middle East, and Asia. Bob teaches foreign policy both at Keene State's Cheshire Academy for Lifelong Learning (CALL) and Rivier College's Rivier Institute for Senior Education (RISE). Bob writes monthly articles on foreign policy for local papers and speaks frequently on the subject across the region.
