The 2016 election and the Obama administration's foreign policy, including its historic agreement with Iran, are epoch moments in modern American politics. Jake Sullivan was a key player in both as a senior adviser to Hillary Clinton at the U.S. State Department (taking a leading role in the negotiations with Iran) and during the 2016 presidential campaign. Mr. Sullivan reflects on these experiences and the challenges facing America's future in a conversation moderated by Professor Larry Jacobs.
