Securing the World: Emerging Threats and American Defense Policy

Event Date: 27th April 2021
Location: Internet 17:00 - 18:00 BST

Former U.S. Secretary of Defense Chuck Hagel has seen it all in the span of his career, in which he earned two purple hearts in Vietnam, served in the U.S. Senate during the post-9/11 era, and prepared the United States to meet emerging threats
while serving in the Obama Administration.

On April 27, he’ll share his insights on the new threats awaiting the United States and the world in the coming decades; how the United States can pursue a consistent defense strategy abroad with hyper-partisan politics at home; and Secretary Hagel’s advice for the new administration and its Department of Defense.

Join Perry World House and the Penn Biden Center for a wide-ranging conversation on the United States, the future of defense policy, and security priorities for the Biden administration with former U.S. Secretary of Defense Chuck Hagel.
