Strategic Council Online – Interview: An expert on Caucasus issues said that Swedish Foreign Minister Tobias Billström recently announced that EU states plan to include the ban on the supply of liquefied natural gas (LNG) in the sanctions against Russia.
Strategic Council Online—Interview: An expert on strategic issues said: The US Navy has put a project on the agenda to convert surplus oil platforms into mobile missile defense bases in the Pacific Ocean and face China’s threats. These platforms are supposed to be deployed in response to China’s growing missile threats in the Pacific region. Platforms converted into missile defense bases are expected to play an important role in increasing US air defense capabilities and assisting in the country’s strike missions.
Strategic Council Online – Note: Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan’s recent trip to Iraq, after his last visit to Baghdad 13 years ago, is considered one of the most important political, economic, and security developments in the relations between the two countries.
Hamid Khoshayand- an expert on regional issues
Strategic Council Online – Interview: An expert on subcontinental issues said that India and the United Arab Emirates are working on the first phase of the creation of the India-Middle East-Europe Economic Corridor, known as the IMEC Corridor (ArabMed), which is an alternative route to the Strait of Hormuz and China’s Silk Road plan. Although there are some speculations that with the continuation of the war in Gaza and the unrest in the Middle East, work on this corridor may be sidelined.
Strategic Council Online – Interview: An expert on Caucasus affairs said: Following news reports that the Kremlin has implicitly confirmed that Russian peacekeepers are withdrawing from the Nagorno-Karabakh region and taking their weapons and equipment with them, this question is seriously raised: Does Russia want to hand over the South Caucasus region to the West?
Strategic Council Online – Opinion: The Zionist regime is trying to “psychologically exploit” the recent events in the region to divert the world public opinion from the crimes this regime is committing in Gaza. Examining the atmosphere prevailing in the political and media circles of the Zionist regime and the centers aligned with it at the regional and international level shows that this regime seeks to “highlight and dominate” the recent tensions with the Islamic Republic of Iran so that it could reduce the heavy pressure that is felt in the domestic, regional, and international public opinion and even European governments against the Gaza war.
Hamid Khoshayand – expert on regional issues
Strategic Council Online – Interview: An expert on regional issues said: One of the strategic and long-term dimensions of Iran’s tough missile-drone response to the Occupied Territories will be the further withdrawal of the Zionist regime from its positions in the Gaza war.
Strategic Council Online – Interview: An expert on West Asian issues said: In the last hours of April 14, the Islamic Republic of Iran launched a missile and drone attack against the Occupied Territories, which continued until the next morning. This was despite Iran’s prior notification to some regional and transregional countries about the certainty of our country’s response and military action; America and Israel could not prevent this attack.
Strategic Council Online: The West, along with the UAE and Saudi Arabia, are behind General Khalifa Haftar in the Libyan unrest while Turkey, Qatar and the United Nations stand against him and support the legal rule of Fayez al-Sarraj.
Jafar Ghanadbashi – African Affairs expert
Strategic Council Online: Turkey, by purchasing S400 missile system, is trying to critically remind the United States of its excessive delay in delivering the Patriot system to Ankara on the one hand, and intends to demonstrate its independence in military decision-making beyond what the US and NATO determine, on the other hand.
Siamak Kakaie – Turkish Affairs expert
Strategic Council Online: A university lecturer on geopolitics, arguing that the German and French positions on seizure of a British-flagged oil tanker (by Iran) were very wrong, emphasized: “The Europeans have shown that all their talks about INSTEX (Instrument in Support of Trade Exchanges) and the creation of an open economic environment for Iran are unfounded and what they truly seek is to put pressure on Iran to make it surrender.
Strategic Council Online: Given Britain’s decision to withdraw from the European Union and the unilateralist policies Donald Trump pursues without coordinating and cooperating with his European allies, now space and opportunity have been provided for France more than before to pursue more seriously European independent defence arrangements that Paris had in mind before.
Morteza Makki – European Affairs expert
Strategic Council Online: A West Asian Affairs expert, pointing to Saudi efforts to communicate with Yemeni tribal chiefs in order to persuade Ansarullah to reach an agreement on the end of the war, said: The Saudis are looking for a safe and decent way out of the swamp they are stuck in Yemen.
Strategic Council Online: A West Asian affairs analyst commenting on a UAE decision to pull back troops from Yemen, said: “The field equations in Yemen are changing, which shows that there is no possibility for Saudi Arabia and its allies to win the war, which is why the UAE motives in invading Yemen are declining day by day.”
Strategic Council Online: Libya has now been turned into a field for the rivalry of the regional and trans-regional powers. The plurality of power centres and domestic actors in the Libyan crisis, the multiplicity of interests in the neighbouring countries and in the international environment have created a complicated situation for the country.
Jafar Ghanadbashi – West Asian Affairs Expert
Strategic Council Online: An expert on West Asia affairs commenting on the UAE decision to withdraw from Yemen and reduce its troops, said: “The UAE, sooner than Saudi Arabia, realized that Yemen was indeed a quagmire; as Kuwait was a swamp for Iraq’s Saddam Hussein and resulted in his downfall Yemen too could decide the same fate for the interventionists.”
Strategic Council Online: America’s Trump is creating a revolution in the current order of the world, so that it can reconsolidate its dominant position in the international system by relying on strong support, regulating the domestic infrastructures, strengthening the national economy and reducing the costs, and preventing emergence of a challenging competitor like China.
Dr Saeed Shokouhi – American Affairs Expert
Strategic Council Online: Given its domestic needs and possible problems ahead, Beijing, in the short term, while managing relations with the US, seeks to avoid further tensions in these relations, preferring to serve its economic interests even in the event of a change of government in Caracas. Therefore, China will continue to focus on political action and the formation of international groups supporting the Maduro government and will refrain from sending troops to America’s backyard.
