Ongoing conflicts in Gaza and the West Bank remain a focal point of international news, with debates surrounding the Trump administration’s resettlement proposal, hostage and prisoner exchanges, and a fragile ceasefire.
Meanwhile, the war between Ukraine and Russia continues, though recent developments suggest peace talks may be on the horizon.
John McGarry, a professor in the Department of Political Studies and a globally recognized expert on ethnic conflict, nationalism, and conflict resolution, is available for commentary on these issues and the challenges ahead for both regions.
Dr. McGarry, a recipient of the 2022 Pearson Peace Medal, has been honored for his contributions to global peace and stability. He is also a former Canada Research Chair in Nationalism and Democracy, an Officer of the Order of Canada, and a recipient of prestigious awards including the Killam Prize, Molson Prize, and Trudeau Fellowship Prize.
