Good morning. Im the director for the center of United States in europe. At the bookings institution. I am delighted today to be chairing this important discussion on election 2020 and its implications for u. S. Over the weekend there has been some rapid developments. After a tumultuous few days, i think for everyone, the election was close for many days. So we have a terrific panel this morning to discuss not so much the election but looking forward to next year to see what the implications are for u. S. Foreign policy, for international order, and to talk to parse maybe some of the nuances of last week and what they may mean, particularly that trumpism is alive and well even though the president did not receive a second term and that the senate could still be in the hands of the republicans.

This is not the first event in washington on this general topic , and i think it is a fair question to ask why, why are we focusing on the murder of one individual .

Treaties will provide palestine to demand from israel and other states to a baby rule of law. A baby rule of law. Icj sre parties to the tatute. Members
