Charli Carpenter Interviewed about Limits on Drone Strikes

Charli Carpenter, Professor of Political Science at UMass Amherst, is interviewed about the Biden administration’s temporary limits on counterterrorism drone strikes outside of active battlefields.  She says, “There’s going to be a much higher level of oversight, it will make drones harder to use, and weaponized drones will only be used in the most extreme cases.”  From March to April of this year, Carpenter is a guest researcher at the Peace Research Institute in Frankfurt.
