On behalf of the Council on Foreign Relations (CFR), I invite you and your students to participate in the first session of the Winter/Spring 2012 CFR Academic Conference Call series on Wednesday, February 8, from 1:00 to 2:00 p.m. (ET). Please note the special timing of this call.

He has worked for the Swedish Permanent Mission to the UN, where he served in the Security Council, handling the affairs of Afghanistan, Iraq, Tajikistan, and Western Sahara, and in the General Assembly’s Third Committee, addressing human rights in Iran, Afghanistan, Myanmar, and Iraq.
