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.
Online Strategic Council – Interview: A West Asia affairs expert stated that the first parliamentary elections in Syria during the interim government’s tenure, led by Ahmad al-Shar, were held while the appointed composition of seats, the absence of a national census, and the influence of foreign actors challenge the real legitimacy and freedom of these elections.
Strategic Council Online – Interview: A West Asia affairs analyst stated: The Syria-Turkey-Azerbaijan gas project goes beyond simple energy cooperation and must be evaluated within the context of regional power competition, efforts to redefine the political order in Syria, and the strengthening of the Turkish-Qatari-Azerbaijani axis in West Asia. An order whose future will largely depend on the stability of the Damascus government and Turkey’s ability to manage security, economic, and geopolitical crises simultaneously.
At a time when Syria is still grappling with extensive infrastructure problems and an energy crisis, the inauguration of the gas pipeline from Azerbaijan to Syria via Turkey, with Qatar’s financial support, has drawn the attention of regional analysts. This project, which in its first phase will transfer 3.4 million cubic meters of gas per day and will eventually reach a capacity of 6 million cubic meters per day, could add approximately 750 megawatts to Syria’s electricity generation capacity.
Strategic Council Online – Opinion: On April 18, 2025, the US Department of Defense (Pentagon) announced a review of the deployment of its military forces in Syria codenamed “Operation Inherent Resolve”. This plan, designed in line with Donald Trump’s policies to reduce US military presence in the Middle East, will reduce the number of US troops from 10,000 to 1,000 within two months. Although this measure was announced under the pretext of success in weakening ISIS, it is part of a broader US strategy to redefine its mission in the region. However, numerous political and security complexities accompany this decision, the consequences of which will be significant for Syria, the entire region, and even the international system.
Strategic Council Online – Opinion: Since Syria’s independence, the country has not faced the threat of “division” and “disintegration” as it has in recent weeks.
Strategic Council Online – Guest Opinion: The increase in civilian casualties and ordinary citizens in the northern and eastern regions of Syria, following the continuation and intensification of air and artillery attacks by the Turkish army and its affiliated militias, namely the Syrian National Army (SNA), has led to growing concerns about the future course of developments in Syria.
Strategic Council Online – Interview: An expert on Turkish affairs said: The power vacuum in the region after the US military withdrawal from Iraq and its intensification after the withdrawal from Afghanistan opened up space for maneuvering by regional powers, especially Turkey. In the meantime, Ankara, relying on national power, an active foreign policy, and cooperation with the main power blocs in the international system, turned towards ambition and role-playing in the affairs of countries and regional issues, the most important example of which we are witnessing today in Syria.
Strategic Council Online—An expert on Caucasus issues said that the Turkish Foreign Minister recently stated in a joint press conference with his Saudi counterpart: “Our current strategy is dialogue and peace, and we ask Iran and Russia to play a constructive role in this process.” According to these statements, Turkey’s policy towards Syrian refugees and its consequences have once again been considered.
Strategic Council Online – Opinion: Turkey’s foreign policy approach towards Syria in the past decade has caused many problems and costs for Ankara in terms of national, economic, political, and demographic security.
Strategic Council Online—Opinion: In recent weeks, the “suspicious movements” of the US in Syria have spread. So that the movement of American political and intelligence officials to areas in the northeast of Syria, as well as the holding of meetings to exchange views with the opposition of the Damascus government outside of Syria, have increased.
