The Committee co-sponsored a half-day CLE program on April 23, 2010 at Columbia University on “Russia’s Expanding Engagement in International Law in Trade, Human Rights, and Energy Investments.”
About 75 attendees heard presentations by Committee members Yulia Andreeva, Dmitri Evseev, David Miller, and Daniel Rothstein, as well as former State Department Legal Adviser John Bellinger, Assistant US Trade Representative Christopher Wilson, former Deputy Secretary of the Energy Charter Secretariat Andrey Konoplyanik, Tanya Lokshina of Human Rights Watch, several Columbia faculty, and in-house counsel.
The conference was organized by David Miller and Daniel Rothstein and generously sponsored by Columbia’s Harriman Institute. Other co-sponsors were Columbia Law School and the New York State Bar Association’s Committee on Central and East Europe. This event was a significant milestone for the Russia-focused committees of both ABA and NYSBA: their first joint program with the Harriman Institute, the country’s most important center for research on the former USSR and East Europe.
A video webcast (non-CLE) of the event will be available for $25 until approximately October 23.
