Ambassador Marcelle M. Wahba, AGSIW president, spoke to a bipartisan group of 30 Capitol Hill staffers at a policy seminar organized by the Partnership for a Secure America (PSA). PSA’s highly selective congressional staff foreign policy and national security program is for Hill staff interested in generating dialogue and developing the skills and relationships required to advance bipartisanship on critical national security and foreign policy issues. Wahba’s remarks and the discussion that followed focused on the crises currently facing the Middle East including Syria, ISIL, Yemen, Iran-GCC relations, and the refugee issue.
