  • Ian Brzezinski Is a Resident Senior Fellow with the Brent Scowcroft Center on International Security and Is on the Atlantic Council's Strategic Advisors Group
    Ian Brzezinski is a resident senior fellow with the Brent Scowcroft Center on International Security and is on the Atlantic Council's Strategic Advisors Group. He brings to the Council more than two decades of experience in US national security matters, having served in senior policy positions in the US Department of Defense and the US Congress. He currently leads the Brzezinski Group, which provides strategic insight and advice to government and commercial clients. Brzezinski served as deputy assistant secretary of defense for Europe and NATO policy (2001- 05). His office formulated, coordinated, and executed bilateral and regional engagement strategies and defense guidance with the Joint Staff, Unified Combatant Commands, and Defense Department elements. His lead responsibilities included NATO expansion; Alliance force planning and transformation; and NATO operations in the Balkans, the Mediterranean, Afghanistan, and Iraq. Key highlights of his tenure include the expansion of NATO membership in 2004; the consolidation and reconfiguration of the Alliance's command structure; the standing up of the NATO Response Force; and the coordination of European military contributions to US and NATO-led operations in Iraq, Afghanistan, and the Balkans. Brzezinski served for seven years on Capitol Hill, first as a legislative assistant for national security affairs to the chairman of the Senate Finance Committee, Senator Bill Roth, (1995– 2000) and then as a senior professional staff member on the US Senate Committee on Foreign Relations (2000–01). In these capacities, he drafted and implemented legislative initiatives and strategies concerning US interests in Europe, Russia, the Caucasus, and Central Asia. As the staff coordinator of the Senate NATO Observer Group, he facilitated coordination and communication between the US Senate and the executive branch on NATO enlargement, NATO operations in the Balkans, and Alliance force modernization, among other issues.

  • US SECURITY POLICY for EUROPE by Ian Brzezinski
    MAY 2015 US SECURITY POLICY FOR EUROPE By Ian Brzezinski Ian Brzezinski is Senior Fellow, Brent Scowcroft Center on International Security, at the Atlantic Council. This is the text of testimony delivered at a hearing of the US Senate Committee on the Armed Services, April 28, 2014 on US Policy on Europe. The testimony was originally posted on The Atlantic Council’s website at http://www.atlanticcouncil.org/news/in-the-news/brzezinski-testifies-before-us-senate-committee-on-armed-services. Chairman McCain, Ranking Member Reed, Members of the Committee, I am honored to speak at this hearing on the state of U.S. security interests in Europe. We meet today some eight months after the September 4, 2014 NATO summit in Wales, United Kingdom. That meeting of Allied heads of state proved to be an important inflection point for the Alliance. When planning for that summit began, its primary objective was to mark the end of NATO’s combat operations in Afghanistan. Some were even concerned about the future relevance of NATO, anticipating that it was about to enter a period of unprecedented operational inactivity following decades of defending against the Soviet Union, managing conflict in the Balkans, and, more recently, contributing to out-of area undertakings in Afghanistan and even Iraq. Instead, the Alliance’s agenda that Fall was dominated by events that most policy-makers on both sides of the Atlantic failed to anticipate. These, of course, include Russia’s invasion of Ukraine and the sudden and bloodthirsty rise of ISIS in Syria and Iraq. A read of the summit communiqué reflects other challenges confronting the Alliance: missile proliferation, chaos in Libya, crises in Mali and the Congo African Republic, threats to the global commons – including its cyber and maritime domains, and Iran’s nuclear program, among others.

  • Is It Time for the United States to Pivot Back to Europe?
    Is It Time for the United States to Pivot Back to Europe? Ambassador Kurt Volker: Ladies and gentlemen, welcome. Let me be the first to apologize for the traffic in getting here and for the Metro blockages as well. We didn't know when we were scheduling this that we have the National Christmas Tree to compete with. I'm glad that you made it here. I think we have a terrific evening planned for you. My name is Kurt Volker. I have the honor of being the Executive Director of the McCain Institute for International Leadership, which was formed to honor the legacy of service to our country of Senator and Mrs. McCain and the McCain family, going back generations. It's part of Arizona State University but based here in Washington and in DC. It is dedicated to advancing character-driven leadership and to being a do tank more than a think tank, a do tank where we try to take on projects in the areas of humanitarian work, human rights, rule of law, governance, and security. One of the things that we do is we organize this debate series, in order to tee up and consider some of the key challenges facing our country and, in fact, facing the world. I can't even count how many of these we've done now, but we've asked questions such as, "Should the United States intervene in Syria?" As early as January 13, we held that debate. We have talked about whether we should get out of Afghanistan, how to deal with Iran, is it time for containment with Russia.

  • Emilie Brzezinski Chainsaw Progression
    Emilie Brzezinski Chainsaw Progression March 15th- April 29th, 2018 Jim Kempner Fine Art is pleased to announce Chainsaw Progression, the gallery’s first exhibition with the artist Emilie Brzezinski. The works dis- played will be a selection of Brzezinski’s large-scale wood sculptures dating from 1988 to 2018. The exhibition will be on view from March 15th to April 29th, 2018. Primarily a self-taught artist, Emilie Brzezinski first gained critical attention in the 1970s when she was sculpting with a variety of media, including res- ins, latex, and wood fiber. In the late 1980s she turned to wood, a medium that has dominated her practice ever since. “The medium of wood, which I started using seriously in 1989, was not new to me. Only the tools were new - the axe and the chainsaw. The material is warm and appealing, live, resilient and full of memories: It has grain, knots, grown-over wounds, cracks, and surprises, such as insect in- vasions, hollows and rot spots. […] I learned to respect nature, to let it live Emilie Brzezinski in front of Lament. on in my forms, to have a dialogue with the wood” (Brzezinski: Lure of the Forest, Sculpture 1979-2013, p. 183). Lament, a towering 15-foot, free-standing work, will reside in the gallery’s outdoor sculpture garden. It is made up of three tree trunks, each gathered over time in different locations. After Brzezinski discovered the first bent piece, she had a vision of wood crying out for the suffering of the world. Lament came into being only after she haphaz- ardly stumbled upon the third extraordinary element of this work, a tree trunk found in a lumber mill on top of a huge pile of wood waiting to be burnt.

Is the management of the Soviet threat through deterrence and dialogue still a foundation for tackling other risks? Hybrid threats do require a different burden sharing in a multipolar and disorderly world where other instruments are as useful as military ones? Does NATO guarantee the collective security just in the North Atlantic theatre, soon to include the Balkans?
