Nexus-symposium Middle East Diplomacy: The Inevitability of Tragedy?
Is peace possible in the Middle East? Come to the Nexus symposium with Robert Malley and Sigrid Kaag – two top diplomats with an extraordinary track record in the region.
The lasting influence of history
History remains influential and helps determine current events. Profound historical moments from the past have a lasting impact and influence the present day. This is certainly true for the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. Over the last 2.5 years, this escalated into a war in Gaza.
