Is Sudan Coming In From the Cold?

By: Andrew Green | Briefing

One of the more unexpected decisions to emerge in the waning days of Barack Obama’s presidency was his move last week to ease U.S. sanctions against Sudan that have been in place for nearly two decades. The move to open up Sudan’s economy might encourage the reforms that 20 years of sanctions have not.

Taking Stock of the U.S. Rebalance and the Contest for Influence in Asia

By: Timothy R. Heath | Briefing

Can Cote d’Ivoire Keep Its Soldiers in the Barracks?

By: Robbie Corey-Boulet | Briefing

Last week, Cote d’Ivoire’s government and soldiers who had mutinied claimed to have reached a deal to end their standoff.

By: Mohsen Milani | Feature

On Iran, Can Trump Make the Transition From Campaign Rhetoric to Policy?

By: Ellen Laipson | Column

By: Judah Grunstein | Column

Just when it seemed like the EU’s troubles couldn’t get any worse, Donald Trump rubbed salt in its wounds last week in an interview, lauding Brexit, disparaging German Chancellor Angela Merkel, and deriding the EU as a vehicle for German economic domination.
