Please join us for a briefing call with Barbara Slavin of the Atlantic Council, an expert on Iran. Ms. Slavin will share her analysis of the current negotiations with Iran on its nuclear program, and help us beter understand the state of affairs as the negotiating parties approach the November 25 deadline.

Iran-Iraq war, and the Arab-Israeli conflict. She has traveled to Iran nine times, most recently to report on the
inauguration of Iran's new president Hassan Rouhani. Slavin also served as a public policy scholar at the Woodrow
