Strategic Council Online – Note: Iran has done more than its share for the nuclear non-proliferation regime.
Strategic Council Online – Note: Iran has done more than its share for the nuclear non-proliferation regime.
Strategic Council Online: The President of the Strategic Council on Foreign Relations stated: “The US State Department spokesperson, after my interview with Al Jazeera, reiterated their past remarks, stating that they won’t allow Iran to build nuclear weapons, but ultimately said diplomacy is the best approach. Yes, we too prefer diplomacy since based on the Fatwa of our Supreme Leader are not for nuclear weapons; rather, we are advocates of diplomacy to make the Middle East a nuclear-free region. But, in case the Israeli regime threatens us with nuclear weapons, we surely cannot sit idle and wait for permission from others.”
Strategic Council Online – Opinion: The strategic Strait of Bab al-Mandab and the Red Sea have recently faced serious problems and crises due to the Gaza war. This is because of the protectionist approach of the Yemeni army forces toward Palestine, which, since the beginning of the Israeli regime’s attacks on the Gaza Strip, has included attacks on ships bound for or from the origin of the regime in the Red Sea.
They said they will continue their attacks until the Israeli regime’s military aggression in the Gaza Strip ends. The United States, as the most important supporter of the Israeli regime, was the first country to respond to this policy of Yemeni army forces and tried to form a global coalition to counter these attacks under the cover of supporting freedom of navigation, which, of course, failed because of conflicts of interests of Western countries and ended in the actions of the US and British attacks on positions in Yemen. Of course, although European countries were not seriously involved in the American coalition, they have numerous and complex interests in this inflammatory, and as a result, have adopted a particular and independent approach.

Strategic Council Online – Interview: An expert on regional issues said Qatari authorities will definitely resist Western pressure to expel Hamas leaders from their territory, and probably the United States will not move towards a zero-hundred equation in this regard because if the Hamas leaders remain in Qatar, which is an ally of the United States, is better than moving to a country outside the power of the United States to exert pressure.
Strategic Council Online – Opinion: Student protests in America take on new dimensions every day.
Because the university enjoys higher public trust and social capital than other civil and social institutions and is, therefore, more effective, the current protests put the U.S. government in a “difficult situation” that is clear in the statements of current and former U.S. officials.

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: Saudi Arabia has tried, in addition to its Persian Gulf allies, attract Egypt as one of the Middle East powers in a coalition called the Hebrew-Arab NATO against Iran, but with Cairo’s withdrawal from the coalition Saudi Arabia and its allies have faced an impasse in creating a full-fledged anti-Iran coalition.

Strategic Council Online: The President of Strategic Council on Foreign Relations said illusionary Iranophobia made by the United States, with the cooperation of the Zionist regime, resulted not only in the plunder of the wealth of Arab states but also it produced the normalization of their relations with the Zionist regime.
Strategic Council Online: Despite a ceasefire agreement the Coalition of aggressors against Yemen continues its obstructions and attacks on civilian areas. Also, the Stockholm conference has not achieved tangible results to end the five-year crisis in Yemen.
Strategic Council Online: The new changes in the Saudi cabinet will not be very deep and widespread and we should not expect a tangible turn in Saudi foreign policy vis-à-vis the Yemeni crisis or Iran-related issues.
Dr. Rahman Ghahramanpour – Senior Middle East Researcher
Strategic Council Online: An expert on West Asian affairs believes that the most likely scenario for the future of peace in Yemen is the continuation of the bilateral and multilateral negotiations, in parallel with the Saudi obstructions and repeated violations of the ceasefire provisions.
Strategic Council Online: The Syrian dossier has reached a crucial and decisive stage this year. The widespread security crisis imposed on Syria by the crisis generating regional and international actors since 2011, with the aim of overthrowing the Syrian state and disturbing the balance of power in the region to the disadvantage of the Resistance, has reached its final stages thanks to the support of the Islamic Republic of Iran and the Resistance Forces as well as Russia’s assistance. Therefore, the year 2018 could be called the year of shifting the Syrian dossier into the political phase.

Strategic Council Online: Drastic escalation of air, land and sea raids in the province of Hudaydah, in the west coast of Yemen and intensification of the military operations by the aggressor forces of Saudi-UAE coalition on the areas around port city of Hudaydah represent new decisions adopted over the past couple of weeks and implemented with the logistical support of the United States and France: Decisions based on the overall and imaginative strategy of Saudi-Emirati alliance in order to take over the capital city of Sanaa on the one hand and on the other hand, the decisions that have targeted getting concessions under the current political circumstances in the peace talks.
