Online Strategic Council – Memoir: The swift selection of Nouri al-Maliki for the premiership constitutes a new phase in Iraq’s political sphere. Multiple factors have played a role in this process, the most important being the prevailing situation in Iraq and the region. Under such circumstances, Iraq requires a powerful and experienced prime minister who can keep the country away from the dangers of wars and crises.
Strategic Council Online – Opinion: Relations between some countries in the Asia-Pacific region, such as China and Japan or China and Australia, which were previously relatively normal, are trending towards deterioration, and the primary reason for this is the aggressive policies of the United States of America.
Strategic Council Online – Interview: An international affairs expert stated that the decline of the liberal international order began in 2008. Although the liberal international order still governs international relations, an order is emerging to replace it, based on competition among major powers.
Strategic Council Online – Interview: The Ukraine war has become a new turning point in the political, security, and even commercial relations of allies on both sides of the Atlantic. While this war is nearing its fourth year, many questions still remain regarding its future and its consequences; among them, will the continuation of the Ukraine war lead to the collapse of the European security illusion?
Strategic Council Online – Interview: A European affairs expert believes that the seizure of Greenland will certainly weaken America’s relations with Europe and its allies. Donald Trump’s view is that he does not need these countries, but if Europe faces significant pressure from the United States, it is natural for it to move toward China.
Strategic Council Online – Opinion: Numerous documents and pieces of evidence indicate that ISIS, which in recent years has been the region’s biggest threat to security and stability after the Zionist regime, has once again in recent months become a focal point for political and security exploitation by American and Zionist regime security, intelligence, and political circles.
Strategic Council Online – Interview: A regional affairs researcher stated: Despite projects such as the Khaf-Herat railway and the Herat-Balkh-Mazar-i-Sharif corridor being on the agenda, insecurity and the absence of an inclusive government remain the most significant obstacles to realizing transit corridors and Afghanistan playing an effective role in the economy of Eurasia.
Strategic Council Online – Opinion: New U.S. moves to sell F-35s to Turkey and Saudi Arabia have seriously challenged the regional air balance and intensified the security concerns of the Zionist regime.
Strategic Council Online – Opinion: The sanctions imposed by the European Union against the Islamic Republic of Iran before the activation of the snapback mechanism represent an effort to exert additional political and economic pressure on our country to change the system’s behavior regarding regional developments.
Strategic Council Online – Interview: A geostrategic affairs analyst said: The emerging Eurasian order is not merely an economic plan, but an effort to redefine the global order based on independence, multilateralism, and regional convergence.
Strategic Council Online– Opinion: One of the most significant impacts of the competition between China and the U.S. on Iran, which is considered an advantage, is that the issue of new technologies has shifted from a monopoly to a bipolar monopoly.
Strategic Council Online- Interview: An analyst of subcontinent affairs stated: Chabahar has become the focal point of the intersection of India and America’s competition and cooperation; a place where diplomacy, economy, and geopolitics intertwine.
Strategic Council Online– Opinion: The experience of three and a half years of Russia’s war with Ukraine and the tensions it has had with the West within this framework have shown that the Russians have not only given in at any stage in the face of Western pressure, including sanctions, but this has also led to an escalation of tensions, differences, and conflicts, both in the region and in Russia-West relations. In practice, any effort in this regard has so far had at least negative results for the Ukrainians, and they have faced increased Russian attacks.
Online Strategic Council – Interview: An economic affairs expert said, “Chabahar is Iran’s only port in the Indian Ocean that can create a new geostrategic balance in the region and solidify Iran’s position as a central player in the regional economy.”
Online Strategic Council – Interview: A senior European affairs analyst, referring to recent developments, stated: Europe’s role in the new international order is complex, affected by the Ukraine war, and simultaneously possesses capacities for economic and political interaction with Iran.
Online Strategic Council – Interview: An expert in the field of artificial intelligence, regarding Trump’s monopolistic approach in the field of developing biological weapons and utilizing artificial intelligence, stated: A large part of Trump’s statements on this matter carries a political and propaganda message and is a kind of show of the United States’ leadership. If the United States can determine the budget and technical agenda in this field and persuade countries to join it, a framework in this area may emerge; however, this path will be complex and time-consuming.
Strategic Council Online – Interview: An international affairs expert stated that in recent months, a multitude of political, economic, cultural, and scientific sanctions have been imposed against the Israeli regime, which, in the interpretation of many analysts, constitutes an “unprecedented set” of multi-layered global pressures. This wave, from the European Union to academic circles, from music festivals to world cinema, has targeted Tel Aviv’s international legitimacy and placed it in an increasingly tight spot. The message of these sanctions is also clear; the Israeli regime can no longer rely on its traditional immunity in the West to escape the moral and political consequences of its crimes in Gaza. Diplomatic isolation, economic restrictions, civil pressures, and damage to cultural prestige are all shaping an environment that can not only limit the Israeli regime’s freedom of action on the international stage but also challenges the credibility and legitimacy of this regime in global public opinion; a challenge that, in principle, should lead to a change in behavior or even internal political equations of the Israeli regime.
Strategic Council Online – Interview: An international economics expert stated that sanctions, as discussed in political and economic literature, are tools used to force countries to change their behavior in foreign or domestic policies. However, the fundamental question is whether these tools consistently achieve the expected results. The European Union, which has intensified its sanctions policy against Russia since 2014, especially after the Ukraine war in 2022, now faces the question of to what extent these sanctions have been able to halt Moscow’s economic machine. Although more than 50 sanction packages have been imposed against Russia since 2014, statistics and analyses show that Russia has been able to overcome the pressures in many cases and even gain more profit in some areas. Experts believe that the lack of unity in European decision-making, the conflict of economic interests among member states, and the historical dependence of some on Russian energy have all combined to cause Europe’s sanctions policy not only to fail to achieve its ultimate goal but, in some cases, to yield opposite results. Meanwhile, the debate over “secondary sanctions” and the change in the European Union’s strategies after the Ukraine war marks a turning point in the future path of Moscow-Brussels relations.
