The Center for Maritime Strategy hosted a private Red Sea Security panel discussion this morning at the Navy League of the United States headquarters in Arlington, VA. This event comes as the conflict reaches its one-year mark, highlighting the significant security implications for the broader Middle East, particularly in the Red Sea. Moderating the session was Admiral James Foggo, USN (ret.), Dean, Center for Maritime Strategy. Guest speakers and contributors included:
- The Honorable Timothy A. Lenderking, U.S. Special Envoy for Yemen, U.S. Department of State, on U.S. policy in the region.
- Ambassador Ronald Neumann, President, American Academy of Diplomacy, on U.S. leadership and geopolitical tensions.

These high-level discussions are crucial in understanding multifaceted challenges and the broader implications for global security. The Center for Maritime Strategy plays an essential role in facilitating informed dialogue, educating policymakers and the public, and serving as a thought leader on complex security issues like those in the Red Sea. We look forward to ensuring strategic conversations continue in order to address evolving threats and shape policy in these critical maritime domains.
