Location: The Heritage Foundation's Allison Auditorium
Taliban militants have made new inroads in to Pakistan's North
West Frontier Province, undermining the central government and
raising questions about the stability of the state. What has
led to the current crisis? How are the Pakistani people
responding? What does it mean for the future of democracy and
societal trends in Pakistan? Join us for a discussion
featuring former Information Minister and Member of Pakistan's
National Assembly Sherry Rehman. Ms. Rehman was one of the
few Pakistani parliamentarians to raise concerns about the Swat
peace deal and its implications for the people of the region.
Following Ms. Rehman's presentation, we will hear comments from
experts on the region. We hope you can attend this timely and
important discussion.
