The parliamentary elections in Azerbaijan attracted a worldwide
attention and were monitored by thousands of observers as well as
the international media. What are lessons learned from this
election's successes and failures? What are the implications for
U.S. foreign policy, including its focus on democratization,
geo-political strategy, and energy security? Join us as our
panelists, who observed the elections, review these and other
questions of critical interest to American policy interests in this
region.
