Joe Biden-lecture by Willem Post

5 April, 2022 @ 6:30 pm 8:00 pm

These are extra-ordinary times. The 46th president presented at the start of his term an attractive domestic agenda. But like so many presidents in U.S. history, once again a foreign policy crisis has ‘overtaken’ a president. The Russian invasion in Ukraine, ‘Putin’s war’,  transformed Biden’s presidency almost overnight. What are the consequenses for the U.S., Europe and the rest of the world? Is this indeed the birth of a new World Order?

Dutch historian Willem Post, specialized in the U.S. presidency, will share in English his thoughts with us on these and other urgent questions at an informal hamburger or vegaburger dinner session (including fries and salad) in International presscentre Nieuwspoort. Drinks could be ordered.

Conversation with Ivo van Wijdeven
Ivo van de Wijdeven is historian and author. His book ‘De rafelranden van Europa’ (Europe’s frayed edges) is widely acclaimed. Especially these last months Ivo is a frequent guest in Dutch television- and radio programs because of his in-depth knowledge of Ukraine and Russia. Willem and Ivo will have a conversation on the current situation concerning Ukraine and the politics of president Putin.
