SUMMARY:The ISIS Crisis and the Future of Syria
DESCRIPTION:COLORADO\n\nWednesday April 8 at 12:00 PM\nAnderson Academic Co
 mmons\nSpecial Events Room\n\nWhat do the dramatic rise of ISIS and the US
 -led battle against it portend for the future of Syria and its protracted 
 civil war? Has the US-led intervention against ISIS strengthened the posit
 ion of the Assad regime\, effectively making the Syrian dictator a US ally
  against the "Islamic State"? Should the US upgrade its support for Syria'
 s rebel forces in their ongoing battle against both ISIS and Assad? What d
 oes the provisional nuclear accord between Iran and the US mean for the fu
 ture of Iraq and Syria and the changing geopolitics of the Middle East?\n\
 nCMES is thrilled to host this forum with Ambassador Frederic Hof and Rafi
 f Jouejati on these and other urgent questions.\n\nAmb. Frederic C. Hof i
 s a Resident Senior Fellow with the Atlantic Council's Rafik Hariri Center
  for the Middle East. He was previously a Special Advisor to President Oba
 ma for transition in Syria and the Special Coordinator for Regional Affair
 s in the US Department of State's Office of the Special Envoy for Middle E
 ast Peace.\n\nRafif Jouejati is the founder and Director of the Foundation
  to Restore Equality and Education in Syria (FREE-Syria) and the English-l
 anguage spokesperson for the Local Coordinating Committees of Syria. She w
 as a participant in CMES' 2013 conference "Resolving the Syria Crisis" and
  a contributor to our book "The Syria Dilemma."\n\nThis event is free of c
 harge and open to the public.\n\nLunch will be provided.\n\n
