The Betrayal of the Kurds: A firsthand report from Northeast Syria

Windham World Affairs Council will present a talk by Ambassador Peter W. Galbraith In the Sanctuary of the Centre Congregational Church. Ambassador Galbraith will discuss Trump’s green light, the Turkish invasion, the Rojava revolution, Russia’s triumph and the loss of American dominance in the Middle East, and what it means for ISIS. He will also cover his efforts to get children out of the iSIS camps in NE Syria.

Ambassador Galbraith has worked on Near East issues for nearly 40 years in government and as a mediator. He has had a remarkable history with the Kurds, and since 2014 has made a number of trips to northern Syria because of his long-standing ties with the Kurdish people.
