Former Ambassador to discuss Middle East issues

Ambassador Peter Galbraith, senior diplomatic fellow at the Center for Arms Control and Non-Proliferation, will headline the inaugural Dr. Sarwat Malik Lecture Series at The College at Brockport, State University of New York, on February 12.

Ambassador Galbraith will deliver a lecture titled “Unwinnable War: US Strategy and the Islamic State” at 7 p.m. in the Tower Fine Arts Center on the Brockport campus. It is open to the public and no tickets are required. The series is designed to provide a forum for learning to bridge-build and advance dialogue about Islam, Middle East and South Asia between students, faculty, and the community at large, according to organizers.

Ambassador Galbraith served as U.S. Ambassador to Croatia from 1993 to 1998 and was actively involved in the Croatia and Bosnia peace processes. He helped mediate the Erdut Agreement that ended the war in Croatia by providing for peaceful reintegration of Serb-held Eastern Slavonia into Croatia. In his work at the Center for Arms Control and Non-Proliferation, he focuses on Iraq, the greater Middle East, and conflict resolution and post-conflict reconstruction.
