Event Date: Thursday, November 6, 2025, 12:30PM - 2:00

The Jewish Policy Center invites you to join us as we co-sponsor a luncheon program with the International Tax and Investment Center’s Energy, Growth and Security Program (ITIC).

Central Asia (C-5, including Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan, Turkmenistan, and Uzbekistan) offers the U.S. a wealth of resources necessary for modernizing and expanding America’s energy industry, including uranium and strategic minerals mining and processing. In this region, where Russia and China traditionally hold sway and Iran and Afghanistan provide challenges, the U.S. should strengthen its strategic and trade/investment ties, potentially expanding the Abraham Accords.

Moderator: Shoshana Bryen, Senior Director, Jewish Policy Center
Panel to date:

      • Ariel Cohen, Ph.D., is a Senior Fellow with ITCI and Managing Director of its Energy, Growth and Security program.
      • Steven Blank, Ph.D. is a senior fellow at the Foreign Policy Research Institute (FPRI).

Location: Capitol Hill Club, 300 1st St SE, Washington, DC 20003
