OxTalks will soon be transitioning to Oxford Events (full details are available on the Staff Gateway). A two-week publishing freeze is expected in early Hilary to allow all events to be migrated to the new platform. During this period, you will not be able to submit or edit events on OxTalks. The exact freeze dates will be confirmed as soon as possible.

We are thrilled to host Sir John Jenkins, former Director of the Foreign and Commonwealth Office (FCO) for the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) and current Head of the Middle East programme at the Geopolitics Centre at Cambridge. Sir John, who served as the UK’s ambassador to several Middle Eastern countries, including Saudi Arabia, will share his insights on the grand strategy of Mohammed bin Salman, changing regional architecture under the new U.S. administration, and the Kingdom’s relationship with Iran and Europe, among other interesting topics.
