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- Interview: An expert on West Asian issues stated: The developments following the Gaza war indicate that the U.S. strategy to redefine the West Asian order through the normalization of relations with the Israeli regime has reached a dead end. Therefore, the post-Gaza war developments have once again placed the U.S. security engineering strategy in West Asia at the center of analysts’ attention.
Online Strategic Council – Note: Developments in the West Asia region, including tensions between Iran and the Israeli regime or regional cooperation, are influenced by macro policies pursued by extra-regional powers. Of course, other equations are very influential. It must be noted that China and Russia have no desire whatsoever for America’s success in the West Asia region and, based on this, they do not support the success and operational superiority of the Israeli regime in confronting Iran. Meanwhile, the Americans are seeking to focus their forces in West Asia for now, amid the three crises of Ukraine, Taiwan, and West Asia.
Strategic Council Online – Interview: A senior analyst on West Asia and North Africa affairs stated, “The recognition of the State of Palestine at the United Nations General Assembly, particularly by European countries, initially appears to be a symbolic and positive action in support of Palestinian rights.” However, this move is more of a political and diplomatic response to the pressure from European and global public opinion than a real pressure on the Israeli regime.
Strategic Council Online – Interview: A senior West Asia affairs analyst stated: By assassinating Yemeni executive officials, the Israeli regime has not only failed to achieve its military objectives, but its position has also been weakened in the diplomatic arena. In contrast, Yemen and the Resistance Front are continuing their path with greater cohesion, and the future outlook indicates that not only will their military capabilities not diminish, but their political standing will also be enhanced at the regional and global levels.
Strategic Council Online – Interview: A senior West Asia affairs analyst stated: The explicit support of Spain, Ireland, Portugal, and some political factions in the Netherlands and Britain for France’s decision to recognize the Palestinian state indicates that the public atmosphere in Europe is changing. Emmanuel Macron, the President of France, has announced that in September, coinciding with the United Nations General Assembly, his government will recognize the State of Palestine. This decision, amid the humanitarian crisis in the Gaza Strip and the continuation of the Israeli regime’s military attacks, is considered a significant step in the diplomatic arena. Of course, it should not go unmentioned that France, as one of the founders of the Israeli regime’s nuclear program and a member of the Rome Statute, has a past full of legal and moral responsibilities towards this regime. In this vein, many analysts believe that if France wants to go beyond this symbolic decision and truly play a role in changing international relations regarding the Palestinian crisis, now is the time to reexamine its historical past.
Strategic Council Online– Interview: A West Asia affairs analyst, discussing the role of Iran’s smart diplomacy in turning regional crises into opportunities to strengthen the country’s influence and position in the region, stated: Iran’s multilateral foreign policy can be an effective alternative to Western military interventions, especially at a time when the failures of the U.S. and the Israeli regime have reduced the trust of West Asian countries in them. By consciously leveraging regional capacities and strengthening cooperation, Tehran can play a pivotal role in establishing sustainable stability in the region.
Strategic Council Online – Interview: A West Asia affairs expert stated that Christoph Henzi, the new NATO commander in Iraq, recently emphasized the North Atlantic Treaty Organization’s (NATO) continued commitment to coordinating and cooperating with Iraqi military and security institutions through experience-sharing, advisory services, and capacity-building.
Strategic Online Council – Interview: A West Asia affairs expert stated that the Zionist regime’s policy of creating famine for the Palestinians in the Gaza Strip is “deliberate.” This policy is not only an attempt to weaken the Palestinian resistance but also part of a long-term strategy to alter the demographic composition of the Strip. The recent warning by the World Food Program about an imminent famine in Gaza has once again drawn global attention to the humanitarian crisis in the region. United Nations reports also indicate that over two million people in Gaza face severe food insecurity, exacerbated by the Zionist regime’s obstruction of humanitarian aid.
Strategic Council Online – Opinion: A while ago, the Hamas movement announced direct negotiations with the U.S. government and an agreement to release Idan Alexander, a dual American-Israeli military prisoner. Later, a senior Hamas official confirmed the direct talks with the U.S. But what is the story behind this?
Strategic Council Online—Opinion: Over the past 15 years, the UAE has assumed a different role than is commonly thought. This role goes beyond the regional and has political and military dimensions.
