Update, March 14:  The event now has been cancelled.  CSIS will be closed all week and all its events are cancelled.

Update, March 10:  Unlike so many events that have been cancelled because of the coronavirus outbreak, CSIS has reinvented this meeting as Web-only.  There no longer will be a meeting at CSIS, but everyone can participate — including asking questions — via the Web.  The time has changed slightly.  It now is 9:15 am – 12:15 pm ET instead of 8:00 am – 12:30 pm ET.  Participate at this website.

Watch from your office, watch from home in your pajamas, watch from your office in your pajamas… whatever works for you. Breakfast and coffee will be served, as long you make it yourself or order it yourself.
