Foreign Correspondence is a biweekly newsletter by me, Yasmeen Serhan, a London-based journalist and former foreign affairs corespondent for American magazines.

I began this correspondence in 2020 as a way to connect directly with readers and share my journalism — first at The Atlantic, where I covered global affairs as a staff writer here in London, and then at TIME, where I was a foreign affairs correspondent covering Europe and the Middle East. As of this this year, I oversee digital features at Reuters.

Although I’m writing less these days, I still use this space to share what’s on my mind, plus links to some of the best things I’ve read. If that interests you, please subscribe! You can (usually) expect to hear from me every other Friday.


Send tips, feedback, and knafeh recipes to @YasmeenSerhan on Twitter/X or @yasmeenserhan.bsky.social on Bluesky.
