Choose a country and act as our desk officer for that country for the semester. You will be responsible for writing then weekly summaries of what is going on in your country, using at least two news sources, and at least 500-words long. This should also talk about any repercussions for US policymakers. All news sources should be current and links are required. Additionally, read and comment on at least two other summaries each week. This is an outside of class activity where you are simulating being a desk officer, so keep looking for new sources of information, compare what you find, and come up with your best interpretation of what is happening.
And I chose the UK as my country because I figured it’d be interesting and easy to find stuff.
