Iran’s Potential Capacity in the Large Energy Market

Strategic Council Online – Interview: An energy affairs analyst stated that the recent imposed war by the Zionist regime and the U.S. against Iran, which Donald Trump described as a military success, has disrupted energy markets and intensified concerns over rising oil prices. This event once again underscored Iran’s decisive position in the oil and gas market.

Formation of a New Regional Order Through Consolidation of Iran-Arab Relations

Strategic Council Online – Interview: A senior West Asia analyst stated that The Washington Post recently emphasized in a report that the attacks by the Zionist regime and the U.S. on Iran not only failed in their strategy to isolate Tehran but also altered the perspective of Persian Gulf countries regarding regional threats, identifying the Zionists as the primary destabilizing force in the region.

Reasons for NATO Members’ Agreement to the Proposed U.S. Budget Increase

Strategic Council Online – Interview: An international affairs expert stated that, given the Russian threat and the rise of militarism worldwide, European countries have concluded that they must cooperate with the U.S. in establishing a unified European defense shield and strengthening NATO.

Domestic Concerns and Repercussions of the 12-Day War for Trump and Netanyahu

Strategic Council Online – Opinion: Every war, regardless of its duration (short or long) and how it ends (ceasefire, lifting siege, or peace), faces an issue called “The Day After.” The day after the war ends refers to the day when the consequences of the war gradually become apparent to the warring parties in various spheres, including political, military, social, economic, and others. The imposed war by the Zionist regime and America against Iran is no exception to this rule.

Objectives of Western Military Support Escalation for the Zionist Regime After the Ceasefire with Iran

Strategic Council Online – Interview: A West Asia affairs expert stated that following the imposition of a ceasefire on the Zionist regime on June 23, 2025, after its military aggression against Iran, reports from Arab sources indicate the arrival of 17 heavy transport aircraft carrying military equipment from the United States and Germany to the Occupied Territories. This move, which the Iraqi media “Naya” describes as part of Western efforts to rebuild the Zionist regime’s military capabilities after heavy losses in the 12-day war with Iran, poses a serious threat to regional peace and Iran’s nuclear negotiations.

Strategic Council Online – Interview: An Israeli regime affairs researcher stated: The Zionist regime media recently announced that Benjamin Netanyahu, the Prime Minister of this regime, has requested a two-week postponement of his trial for security reasons and regional developments. On Sunday, news also emerged that the “Occupied Jerusalem” district court agreed to postpone Netanyahu’s trial by one week. This decision followed the Zionist regime Prime Minister summoning officials from the Foreign Intelligence Service (Mossad) and Military Intelligence Organization (Aman) to a confidential session held at this court to explain the reasons for his request to delay his trial by two weeks.

The Necessity of Vigilance in Confronting the Zionist Regime’s Deception

Strategic Council Online – Opinion: The Zionist regime, which enjoyed the comprehensive support of the United States in its recent aggression against Iran, initially believed that with the surprise in the early days, the war would end quickly and the Islamic Republic of Iran would be defeated. However, contrary to the calculations of the regime and the White House, Iran immediately seized the initiative and, in response to the attacks and aggression of the Zionist regime and in self-defense, inflicted irreparable blows on this regime. As a result, the regime was ultimately scrambling to stop the attacks.

The Root Causes of the Disputes between Greece and Turkey, Prospects for Resolving

Strategic Council Online: Issues such as territorial waters, flight information areas, disputed maritime zones, arming islands, and violation of rights of Turk minority in Thrace (Muslim inhabitant regions of Greece) have been among cases to cause tension between Ankara and Athens within the recent decades. All evidences stipulate that there is no conceivable perspective to de-escalate tensions between the two countries in near future. Despite counselling and agreements already made, yet there is not adequate stability to preserve them. Thus, they can be subject to questions.

Strategic Council Online – The recent attacks by Israeli jet fighters on areas in the northwest of Syria are a serious warning for the beginning of a new round of the regime’s disputes with Russia in Syria. Until recently, relations between Russia and the Zionist regime in Syria, according to Moscow’s considerations, were defined on the basis of the principle of coordination in some areas of security and intelligence, but with the recent Zionist regime invasion of areas northwest of Syria, where Russian forces are stationed, the previous coordination will be undermined.

Concerns and challenges ahead of NATO

Strategic Council Online—Editorial: With Joe Biden going to the oval office in the White House next January, NATO is hoping to re-establish warm relations between the US and Europe after the end of the Trump tenure, and the presence of Biden as the President of the United States would increase hopes for the amelioration of trans-Atlantic relations. NATO Secretary-General Jens Stoltenberg announced an extraordinary session of the NATO Summit at the beginning of 2021 with the participation of Joe Biden after he assumes power in Washington. Many in Europe are waiting for fundamental changes in NATO after the remarks of the French president who described NATO as facing brain death—something suggestive of the depth of internal differences in this military alliance. Paris is also demanding a revision in the activities and objectives of NATO as a military coalition organization.
