SCFR Online – Opinion: Following military failure, Trump has announced the implementation of sanctions and old economic pressures under the new label of “unprecedented economic operation” against Iran; however, Tehran can neutralize this blockade through four specific strategies.
SCFR Online – Opinion: Two contrasting narratives of Trump’s foreign policy – one “crisis as doctrine” and the other a “coherent doctrine” – present a complex picture of America’s attempt to redefine its role in the international system.
SCFR Online – Opinion: The Makkah Pact, signed between Saudi Arabia, Pakistan, and Turkey under the motto “an attack on one is an attack on all,” is viewed by some analysts less as a full-fledged military coalition and more as an attempt to reduce security dependence on an external power and to establish a regional security mechanism.
SCFR Online – Opinion: The new US-Saudi nuclear agreement, despite legal and political ambiguities, could alter previous non-proliferation standards in West Asia and intensify nuclear competition, ushering it into a new phase.
SCFR Online – Opinion: Recent developments in Syria indicate an intensification of strategic rivalry between Turkey and the Israeli regime, but mutual considerations and the role of the United States have limited the likelihood of direct war.

SCFR Online – Opinion: An examination of the mechanisms of the Israeli regime’s influence in the United States depicts a complex picture of shared interests, strategic dependencies, and the limitations of this relationship.
SCFR Online – Interview: The signing of the Makkah agreement between Saudi Arabia, Pakistan, and Turkey has raised questions about the future of the region’s security structure and the position of these countries in West Asian equations. Can this agreement become a genuine collective defense mechanism, or does it have more of a political and deterrent function than creating new military capacity?
Strategic Council Online: Note: The increase in people’s support for far-right parties in the parliamentary elections of Italy, France, Finland, and the Netherlands will make the upcoming elections of the European Parliament the most competitive elections in the history of the European Parliament. But considering the growing popularity of far right-wing groups in Europe and the increasing possibility of their victory in the polls, it will sound a warning for Europe.

Strategic Council Online – Interview: A former Iranian Deputy Foreign Minister says it is unlikely for the Turkish government to put all its eggs in the basket of the West and NATO and jeopardize its relations with Russia at a time when Russia is involved in the Ukraine war and has close relations with Ankara. It should be seen what kind of a deal Turkey has made to persuade it to vote for Sweden’s membership in NATO.
Strategic Council Online: The President of the Strategic Council on Foreign Relations delivered a speech today, 30 January 2024, at the Armenian Orbeli Analysis and Research Center in a gathering of Armenian intellectuals and elites.
Strategic Council Online—Interview: An expert on international law issues said that the judgment of the Hague Court on South Africa’s case against the Zionist regime is “unprecedented” because the plaintiff is not involved in the complaint and is not a party to the lawsuit, but as a member of the Convention against Torture and Genocide, could file this lawsuit and Africa South also used this opportunity in terms of political sensitivities.
Strategic Council Online – Interview: An expert on West Asian issues said: The hearing of South Africa’s complaint against the Zionist regime was held at the International Court of Justice while the genocide and war crimes committed by the occupying regime of Jerusalem are still continuing in the Gaza Strip and every day the number of Palestinian Martyrs is increasing.
