About The Open Mike

The Open Mike is a space where intelligent people are welcome to come and debate politics and international affairs. It is a more informal off shoot of the commentary that I do in an offical capacity of Head of the Transatlantic Security Programme at RUSI and for international news outlets such as the BBC, CNN International, Sky News, and National Public Radio to name a few. 

 Please note that commentary on the RUSI website and on The Open Mike reflects my personal opinion and is not the corporate view of RUSI.

This blog is supposed to  a relaxed and interactive space. So please join the debate.
