Navigating the National Security Inflection Point: Assistant Secretary for Export Enforcement
The United States stands at a national security inflection point. Advanced technologies, including advanced semiconductors and the tools that manufacture them that enable machine learning and artificial intelligence, can contribute to sophisticated weapons and have the potential to create asymmetric military advantages detrimental to U.S. national security interests. Overall, advances in science and technology are poised to define the geopolitical landscape of the 21st century.
Export controls and their enforcement are at the center of meeting this new moment, especially in light of Russia’s full-scale invasion of Ukraine and China’s attempts to procure advanced chips and related manufacturing equipment to bolster their military-civil fusion strategy. Without effective enforcement, the risk of abuse of sensitive U.S. technologies by adversarial actors is far too high. Updates to export enforcement and compliance policies are needed to meet 21st century challenges and protect the national and economic security of the United States.
Please join the CSIS Economic Security and Technology Department for a discussion between Assistant Secretary for Export Enforcement, Matthew S. Axelrod and Scholl Chair in International Business, William A. Reinsch, on the United States’ export enforcement and compliance policies. Economic Security and Technology Department President Navin Girishankar will provide opening remarks.
This event will take place at CSIS HQ, located at 1616 Rhode Island Avenue NW, from 10:00 – 11:00 am EST on September 12th. It will also be livestreamed.
This event was made possible through general support to CSIS.
