“Even though many people would like to term it a religious conflict, it’s actually political [...] politicians using religion as a tool to divide and rule...” — Pastor Esther Ibanga on violence and killings in Nigeria’s ‘Middle Belt.’ #HISF2018

At #HISF2018, it was my honor to present the John McCain Prize to the people of Lesbos, Greece for their aid & support to refugees. My husband would have been proud to recognize their courageous work and of their service to a cause greater than self. twitter.com/HFXforum/statu…

It’s the #HISF2018 and they rightfully don’t let me near the place, but I was able to take part in a conference last week that examined the future of NATO that I’d like to talk about. Time for a thread ->

#GenDunford on professional #military education: Our emphasis now is on teaching future leaders how to think and solve problems in the complex security environment of the 21st century. We're transitioning to a historical case model approach so we're informed by history #HISF2018

#GenDunford: I'm never complacent about the pace of technological change. It's incumbent upon us to invest in capability development. It's a combination of ideas and technology to remain competitive against #China and #Russia. #HISF2018

Photos from this morning’s 5km Run. A @HFXforum Tradition. You can see that while everyone else was fully kitted (long-sleeve tops etc), @Omojuwa and I pretended we were from the Arctic. Where the cold is nothing 😭😂 #HISF2018

I'm at #HISF2018, where Turkish Defense Minister Akar has just said that it was 18-not 15-Saudis were involved in the killing of Jamal Khashoggi and it is possible they may have carried pieces of his body out of the country in diplomatic pouches through the commercial airport

#GenDunford on U.S. strategy in #Afghanistan: We now have a plan to properly resource the Afghan forces, including training and leadership development. The key to success is to combine military & diplomatic pressure that will lead to an Afghan-led reconciliation process #HISF2018

CJCS Dunford modeling proper civil-military relations, not letting himself be drawn beyond military judgments, emphasizing oath to the Constitution, importance of an apolitical military. 👏 #HISF2018

.@PavloKlimkin: The #Russia’n ambition regarding #Ukraine is not just to setup more pro-Russian realities. It is for ceasing Ukraine’s existence as a democratic and 🇪🇺 society. The whole fact of 🇺🇦 existence and success is a complete negation of the Kremlin’s model.
