Reminder — Ask Ivo this Wednesday
A new monthly feature — I will go live the first Wednesday of every month (and more frequently if events warrant — to answer your questions and reflect on your thoughts.
The second session of “Ask Ivo” will take place this Wednesday, June 10, at noon ET / 19.00 CET. Here’s the link.
I’ll go live on Substack for about 30 minutes to answer your questions on U.S. foreign policy, global affairs, and whatever is happening in the world. You can submit questions in advance and I’ll also take questions live from the chat.
To submit a question, just leave it in the comments below.
The Substack live will be open to everyone. I’ll publish the recording afterward for anyone who can’t make it.
See you June 10.
