Thomas Ambrosio, associate professor of political science, was invited by the Azerbaija Embassy in Canada to present at a conference titled, "Azerbaijan in the Caspian Geopolitical Context." The conference, co-hosted by the Patterson School of International Affairs of Carleton University, Ottawa, focused on Azerbaijan's security and energy environment.
Ambrosio's presentation, "Obama's Foreign Policy Toward Nagorno-Karabakh: Continuity or Change?" examined U.S. policy toward this “frozen conflict” by comparing and contrasting the approaches taken by the Obama administration and its predecessor in resolving this dispute.
