Frank G. Wisner: The Role of Diplomacy in a World of Crisis

Frank G. Wisner, a retired American Foreign Service Officer, four-time ambassador, Chairman of the AUB International Advisory Council, and AUB trustee emeritus, shares his insights on the core principles of diplomacy, the challenges of our multipolar world, and the urgent threats facing humanity. Wisner highlights the importance of listening, negotiation, and respect for differing interests in a world where the U.S. can no longer dictate terms unilaterally. He also underscores the critical role of institutions like the American University of Beirut in fostering education and global cooperation. As crises converge—from great power struggles to climate change—Wisner warns of the dangers ahead while offering hope in America's resilience, imagination, and commitment to global problem-solving.
