The Nixon Forum is a new annual "state of the relationship" conference focused on the United States and China. These annual conferences will offer senior government officials, business leaders, diplomats, scholars, and historians from the two countries a regular forum to continue dialogue and nurture a bilateral relationship, whatever the current geopolitical circumstances may be.
The launch of the Nixon Forum marks a return to the nation's capital for the Richard Nixon Foundation, which is now under the leadership of President and CEO Hugh Hewitt.
"The Nixon approach of pragmatic realism needs to be applied to the issues of today," Hewitt said. "Having a Washington presence will put the Nixon Foundation in a position to offer influence and impact on policy as it is developed, particularly in foreign policy."
