Hamid Khoshayand- an expert on regional issues
Strategic Council Online – Interview: An expert on subcontinental issues said that India and the United Arab Emirates are working on the first phase of the creation of the India-Middle East-Europe Economic Corridor, known as the IMEC Corridor (ArabMed), which is an alternative route to the Strait of Hormuz and China’s Silk Road plan. Although there are some speculations that with the continuation of the war in Gaza and the unrest in the Middle East, work on this corridor may be sidelined.
Strategic Council Online – Interview: An expert on Caucasus affairs said: Following news reports that the Kremlin has implicitly confirmed that Russian peacekeepers are withdrawing from the Nagorno-Karabakh region and taking their weapons and equipment with them, this question is seriously raised: Does Russia want to hand over the South Caucasus region to the West?
Strategic Council Online – Opinion: The Zionist regime is trying to “psychologically exploit” the recent events in the region to divert the world public opinion from the crimes this regime is committing in Gaza. Examining the atmosphere prevailing in the political and media circles of the Zionist regime and the centers aligned with it at the regional and international level shows that this regime seeks to “highlight and dominate” the recent tensions with the Islamic Republic of Iran so that it could reduce the heavy pressure that is felt in the domestic, regional, and international public opinion and even European governments against the Gaza war.

Strategic Council Online – Interview: An expert on regional issues said: One of the strategic and long-term dimensions of Iran’s tough missile-drone response to the Occupied Territories will be the further withdrawal of the Zionist regime from its positions in the Gaza war.
Strategic Council Online – Interview: An expert on West Asian issues said: In the last hours of April 14, the Islamic Republic of Iran launched a missile and drone attack against the Occupied Territories, which continued until the next morning. This was despite Iran’s prior notification to some regional and transregional countries about the certainty of our country’s response and military action; America and Israel could not prevent this attack.
Strategic Council Online – Interview: A Caucasus affairs expert said: “If the trend of divergence among regional countries, especially Armenia and Azerbaijan, from Russia accelerates, Russians may show a more serious reaction and even prevent the traditional regional order change using force.”
Strategic Council Online – Interview: An expert on European issues said that France’s relations with the Republic of Azerbaijan have become tense due to the dispute over the Nagorno-Karabakh region.
Strategic Council Online—Opinion: At the end of August this year, Saudi Arabia announced that it had appointed its first ambassador to the Palestinian Authority. Based on this decision, Nayef bin Bandar al-Sudairi, as the extraordinary, plenipotentiary and non-resident ambassador (accredited) of Saudi Arabia in Ramallah and the Saudi consul general in occupied Quds, handed over his credentials to Majdi Al-Khalidi, the diplomatic advisor of Mahmoud Abbas, the head of the Palestinian Authority. Now, less than two months have passed since these decisions and actions, the Saudi government has announced that an official delegation from this country, headed by Nayef Bin Bandar Al-Sudairi, will travel to Ramallah to celebrate the birthday of the Prophet of Islam (PBUH) and to offer prayers in Al-Aqsa Mosque; An unprecedented action since the occupation of Quds in 1967, which will open a new chapter in Saudi Arabia’s diplomatic and role-playing activities in the West Asian region.

Strategic Council Online – Opinion: One of the most important issues raised during Amir Abdollahian’s trip to the coastal states of the Persian Gulf a few months ago was the formation of a joint mechanism called “Dialogue and Cooperation Assembly” for negotiation and cooperation with the presence of all countries in the Persian Gulf region.

Strategic Council Online – Interview: An expert on West Asia affairs said that the meeting of the five-party committee in New York has failed. The failure that French President Macron experienced after the events related to the Beirut port explosion showed that France trying to play a role in Lebanon, as in the past, does not have the necessary place in the public opinion of that country for the settlement of disputes.
Strategic Council Online – Opinion: Normalization and recognition of relations between the Zionist regime and Saudi Arabia is still at the focal point of the political circles of the Zionist regime. Israel and, recently, the United States administration have focused on this issue and are discussing the imminent compromise between Tel Aviv and Riyadh, which is unrealistic.

Strategic Council Online – Opinion: The idea of developing transportation routes to boost trade in the Persian Gulf and eliminate the need for the strategic Strait of Hormuz was formed among the Persian Gulf Cooperation Council member states some years ago. To realize the idea, the rail transport corridor along the Persian Gulf was started in 2016 by launching the Persian Gulf Cooperation Council rail network. According to the agreement signed among the member states of the Council, each of the countries was expected to build and complete their rail network independently. Finally, after completing all national lines, the Persian Gulf Cooperation Council network would be launched by connecting the national rail networks of those countries. In this way, an Arab railway network would be formed, connecting all six Persian Gulf Cooperation Council member countries through a railway line of 2177 kilometers.

Strategic Council Online – Secretariat report: The BRICS group is an economic-political group consisting of the world’s emerging economies, which has been formed to reform global governance and avoid unilateralism of the United States of America.
Strategic Council Online – Interview: A foreign policy expert says that with the increase in BRICS members, this group will continue to be a space where the balance between the members will determine its future. He noted that if it is to be a cold war between China, probably with the company of Russia, and the United States, BRICS will suffer. But if by adjusting the dispute between China and the US, the possibility will be provided for members to cooperate easily, BRICS can have more successful efforts. In any case, the way of interaction and balance between the members will determine its future.
Strategic Council Online – Interview: A university professor says the issue of prolonging the presidential election (in Lebanon) is due to the differences among the Resistance Coalition. He added: The power structure and political groups have reached peaceful coexistence with the interim government and the existence of a power vacuum, and apparently, the presence or absence of the president does not matter much to them. In this situation, negotiations and bargaining do not reach a result that is the most desirable affair for the Zionist regime.
Strategic Council Online – Interview: An analyst of international affairs considered the competition between the UAE and Saudi Arabia regarding mediation to solve the Ukraine crisis as part of the competitive strategy of the two countries in different political, economic, and geopolitical fields with the aim of expanding influence and creating soft power in the region and the world, especially in the centers of international power, and said: Saudi Arabia has more weight and leverage to play such a role in this framework.
Strategic Council Online – Interview: An expert on Saudi affairs stated that Saudi Arabia is trying to join the joint project for building fighter jets with Britain, Italy, and Japan to reduce its dependence on the United States and create a domestic arms industry, adding: Through such measures, part of which is propaganda, Riyadh is trying to show that it has high power and at the same time give warning signs to the United States and show those who want to carry out projects with that country that it has the necessary cards to play in choosing different options.
