On April 22, U.S. Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice will participate in an international conference in Kuwait to advance efforts to provide Iraq with economic, political, and diplomatic support. On the eve of this conference,  Middle East Progress at the Center for American Progress will host a panel discussion examining the full range of diplomatic and political tools available to achieve progress in Iraq. The panelists will offer analysis on recent regional and international diplomatic efforts to support Iraq and determine what more can and should be done to achieve a "diplomatic surge" in the country.
