LIBG Forum 8 June: The War with Iran; misguided, wreckless, or a necessary grasping of the nettle

The unpredictable situation in the Gulf and the Strait of Hormuz has affected the world economy, while discerning President Trump’s motives and objectives there remains opaque. What are the long term consequences?

LIBG has organised an online forum meeting with James Moran, Mohammed Nosseir and other speakers to be added at 7pm UK time on 8 June, chaired by new LIBG chair Larry Ngan.

James Moran is a diplomat and economist. He served as EU Ambassador to Egypt 2012 to 2016 and has held many other diplomatic postings in the Middle East. Married to a Palestinian, he is also father of Liberal Democrat MP Layla Moran.

Mohammed Nosseir is an Egyptian liberal politician who was a member of the higher committee at the Democratic Front Party from 2007 to 2012, and of the political bureau of the Free Egyptian Party till 2013.

He is also an author, writing articles on marketing strategies and sociopolitical reforms published in a number of global and regional magazines & newspapers such as Gulf Business, Arab Newsand Le Monde Diplomatique,
