SUMMARY:Preventing the Unthinkable: India & Pakistan’s Nuclear Standoff - Virtual Program
DESCRIPTION:The World Affairs Council of Atlanta is hosting a series of virtual dialogues focusing on the United States’ ongoing foreign policy re-directs under the Trump Administration. Amb. (ret.) Charles Shapiro\, President Emeritus of the Council and former U.S. Ambassador to Venezuela\, will lead each dialogue with world-class experts in their fields of study and practice.  \n\n\n\nTopic Summary \n\n\n\n In May 2025\, India and Pakistan narrowly avoided a full-scale war after a deadly terrorist attack in Jammu and Kashmir triggered a rapid military escalation. The crisis\, which included airstrikes\, missile exchanges\, drone warfare\, and cyber operations\, was defused through a U.S.-brokered ceasefire on May 10. Despite the de-escalation\, cross-border violations persist\, and tensions remain high. Both nations signaled their nuclear capabilities during the standoff—Pakistan convened its National Command Authority\, while India reaffirmed its stance against nuclear blackmail. Former Georgia U.S. Senator Sam Nunn has long warned that the most alarming nuclear threat lies in the volatile relationship between India and Pakistan. These two large\, multiethnic\, developing nations have a history of deep-seated animosity rooted in the 1947 partition of British India. Since then\, they have fought four wars and engaged in numerous skirmishes\, with Kashmir remaining the most contentious flashpoint. \n\n\n\nFeatured Speakers \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDr. Aparna Pande\nDirector of the Initiative on the Future of India and South Asia at the Hudson Institute\, Washington D.C. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nCharles Shapiro\nExpert panelist and Ambassador  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nRickey Bevington\nPresident of the World Affairs Council of Atlanta \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nRegister

SUMMARY:Mind the Gap: Bridging Franco-American Cultural Differences at Work

SUMMARY:Kinoabend: Zwei zu Eins - Movie Night
DESCRIPTION:ZWEI ZU EINS is a larger-than-life comedy about love and friendship\, about money and justice with the Oscar-nominated actress Sandra Hüller and Max Riemelt and Ronald Zehrfeld. \n\n\n\nThe film is an ode to a time in German history when anything and everything seemed possible.Halberstadt in East Germany during the summer of 1990. Maren (Sandra Hüller)\, Robert (Max Riemelt) und Volker (Ronald Zehrfeld) have known and loved each other since their childhood days. Pure chance lets them come across a storage facility with Billions of now outdated East German currency – left there to rot. The three friends smuggle backpacks full of money out\, and together with friends and neighbors they develop a plan – a system – to turn the worthless money into household items and other valuables which they use to trick the encroaching capitalism and West-Germans that come with it.Director Natja Brunckhorst based her summer comedy on true events: After the fall of the Berlin Wall and shortly before the German reunification\, millions of East German marks were stored in underground bunkers near Halberstadt\, a small city in the former GDR. In total\, nearly 400 tons of paper money were hidden away during the transition to a unified German currency. It is a fact that some of this money was stolen\, though to this day\, no one knows how much. \n\n\n\n\n\n\nGet Tickets

SUMMARY:Art of Diplomacy Tour of Cuba with Ambassador Charles Shapiro
DESCRIPTION:Curious about Cuba? Ambassador (ret.) Charles Shapiro and Amanda Mattingly are leading a trip to Havana June 12-16\, 2025 to meet with a wide range of Cuban academics\, artists\, small business owners and others to figure out what is going on and how the United States should respond. We will meet with the Acting U.S. Ambassador to Cuba as well as the Cuban Ministry of Foreign Affairs (requested). The Cuban economy has been crushed by Covid\, U.S. sanctions and bad governance. In 2021 and 2024\, protests broke out and were repressed by the Cuban government. One thing is sure: the sound bites from the U.S. right and left miss the complexity of Cuba. We will meet in the Havana airport the late morning of Thursday\, June 12 and depart on flights the late afternoon on Monday\, June 16. We will stay in privately owned\, comfortable boutique hotels. \n\n\n\n\n\n\nRegister\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDownload Flyer
