Russia, the 2016 election and the future of the Trump administration will be the subject of an upcoming roundtable discussion sponsored by the Pell Center for International Relations and Public Policy.

“Political Warfare” will be held at 11:45 a.m. Friday, Jan. 27 in the Miley Hall executive dining room.

The Russian government is engaged in political warfare with the West. Its goals are to undermine the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) and the European Union. The U.S. intelligence community has reported that Russia intervened in the U.S. election to support the candidacy of Donald Trump. During the roundtable, participants will look at the specific methods Russia has employed and discuss how the United States can push back.

Roundtable discussions are open to Salve Regina students, faculty and staff. The Pell Center provides a free lunch. As space is limited, those interested in attending should RSVP to (401) 341-2927 or pellcenter@salve.edu.
