At the end of last week, President Biden announced that U.S. special forces had conducted a raid in the countryside near the Syrian-Turkish border that resulted in the death of the current leader of ISIS, Abu Ibrahim al-Hashimi al-Qurayshi, also known as Hajji Abdullah.

To avoid civilian casualties, Biden said the Administration opted to dispatch U.S. Special Operations Forces rather than use missiles or drones. U.S. officials say that there were no American casualties in the attack, but the ISIS leader detonated an explosive that killed both his family and himself  before special forces could reach him. According to The White Helmets, a Syrian civil defense group, rescuers who were on the ground after U.S. forces left said they found the bodies of at least 13 people, including 6 children and 4 women.

Biden is simultaneously dealing with tensions between Russia and Ukraine, a contentious relationship with China, among other foreign policy issues. A year into Biden’s presidency, The Takeaway looks at his strategy for foreign policy — or Biden’s doctrine — with Robin Wright, a columnist at The New Yorker and a Wilson Center Distinguished Fellow.
