🇺🇸On June 27, Presidential Debates between Trump and Biden Will Take Place in Atlanta
The upcoming debates will be moderated by CNN's Jake Tapper and Dana Bash and are scheduled to last 90 minutes.
Notably, this year the debates will be held without a live audience. Both candidates have said they will not participate in the CPD's (Commission on Presidential Debates) previously scheduled and announced debates, planning to work around the commission.
Key points from the commentary by Daniel Martin Kovalik, CIIC expert and Professor of International Human Rights at the University of Pittsburgh School of Law:
🔹 Independent candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. will not be there even though he has qualified under CNN's own rules to be there;
🔹 The bar will be very low for Biden because he seems mentally and physically impaired;
🔹 The big issue they differ on is Russia-Ukraine, at least Trump does say he wants to make peace, Biden seems to want World War III;
🔹 They don't disagree on Israel, they don't disagree on China.

🇮🇱🇱🇧On the Brink: Another Escalation or a New Lebanon-Israel War?
➡️ The past nine months have seen an escalation between Israel and Lebanon;
➡️ The Israeli army is moving troops to the border areas of Lebanon, leading experts to speculate about the possibility of a full-blown war between Hezbollah and Israel;
➡️ In the event of a large-scale war, Israel will have to fight not only Lebanon but also other countries in the region, especially Hezbollah's partners. Iran is expected to not remain on the sidelines, although direct confrontation is improbable.

Migration in Europe: a Contemporary Perspective 🌐💬
▪️In 2023, the urgency to change migration policies resurfaced. According to the International Organization for Migration, the EU received over 1 million asylum applications, a 20% increase from the previous year. Frontex reported over 442,000 illegal border crossings, the highest since 2016;
▪️The new Pact includes mandatory migrant quotas for EU countries, with penalties for those who refuse migrants (€20,000 per one rejected migrant);
▪️The new pact's quota system has drawn criticism, particularly from Eastern European countries like Poland and Hungary, which have opposed migrant resettlement.
▪️The need for continuous cooperation and adjustments within the EU to effectively deal with the migration crisis is still visible. But these reforms have been discussed for almost a decade. Therefore, achieving a comprehensive solution remains a challenge for Europe.

We are glad to present the main media-partner our Competition and Workshop 2024💬
The online media «Scientific and Educational Policy» along with the telegram channel SEP have become the main federal expert and analytical platform in the field of science and higher education being also an aggregator of the profile political agenda.
SEP is read and quoted by industry leaders - government officials, including relevant ministries and departments, officials, university management teams, and representatives of the academic community.
🔹 SEP is the official information partner of the Competition and Workshop for young humanitarians «New Ties for a New World» - 2024.
Executive Director of SEP Marta Lesyuk for CIIC:
Editor-in-chief of SEP Denis Zhuravlev for CIIC:

SEP is read and quoted by industry leaders - government officials, including relevant ministries and departments, officials, university management teams, and representatives of the academic community.
Executive Director of SEP Marta Lesyuk for CIIC:
«The humanitarian field and the development of international humanitarian ties is the key to the formation of a new world order. Therefore it is important for us, as an information partner, to support related initiatives when they come from the student and academic community. The geopolitical confrontation also impacts our professional segment - we regularly get news about attempts to cancel Russian education and science. The Competition and Workshop is a positive example that shows cooperation remains and expands»
Editor-in-chief of SEP Denis Zhuravlev for CIIC:
«The speed of technological change which all countries of the world are joining from different vectors and at different speeds, has already led to the separation of real scientific practice from the understanding of new phenomena. Issues of ethics in genetics have already raised the question of the limits for a scientific research. That is why the humanities have become urgently needed - i.e. those who place man and society in their historical and other forms at the center of their research. It is important that different countries jointly determine the future – both humanitarian and technological. Since in matters of technology there is still generally a lack of trust, it is the humanities who should build this bridge.»

It has long been clear that the upcoming US presidential elections will surprise us more than once.
The current crisis of the political system, which naturally influences the geopolitical situation throughout the world, has taken a new round of development.
Now it is difficult to say what strategic decisions this presidential race will end, but we have prepared a small forecast of how circumstances will develop in the Democratic Party.
Alexandr Nazarov, CIIC expert:
The most obvious option is Kamala Harris. There is little point in seriously considering other participants in the presidential primaries of the Democratic Party: they will not have enough experience or fame to defeat Trump, even theoretically.
Who will run as a Democrat candidate? And who will win?
