Ambassador John M. Evans will talk about his new book and about the situation in the South Caucasus after the "four-day war" that took place in early April between the Armenians of Nagorno-Karabakh and Azerbaijan. Ambassador Evans, a career Foreign Service officer who served as U.S. Ambassador to Armenia from 2004-2006, stirred controversy in February 2005 by publicly dissenting from the policy of the Bush Administration on the 90-year-old issue of the Armenian Genocide. Previously he served in Tehran, Prague, Moscow, Brussels (NATO), the Organization for Security Cooperation in Europe, St. Petersburg and Washington. His book, published in April, will be available for sale. This event costs $25 and includes lunch.
