SCFR Online – Opinion: The escalation of verbal and strategic tensions between Turkey and the Israeli regime, although not increasing the likelihood of direct war, indicates the formation of a new order in West Asian geopolitical rivalries.
Strategic Council Online – Note: Recent developments in the political geography of West Asia, from rising tensions in the Persian Gulf to missile and drone activities in the Red Sea and the recent warning by Kaja Kallas, the European Union’s foreign policy chief, regarding the threat to freedom of navigation, indicate a key pattern shift; the US-Iran war has moved beyond the scope of a regional and local confrontation and has linked two vital passageways for the global economy: the Strait of Hormuz and the Bab el-Mandeb Strait.
SCFR Online – Opinion: The Ukraine war was not merely a European crisis, but rather the starting point for the rearrangement of the global balance of power and a shift in the strategic behavior of great powers.
SCFR Online – Opinion: Great power competition is now pursued more in trade, currency, technology, and global supply chains than on the battlefields of military confrontation.
Strategic Council Online – Note: By disregarding Iran’s deterrence capabilities and political economy leverage in the Strait of Hormuz, Washington has reached a strategic deadlock from which military means are unable to extricate it.
SCFR Online – Opinion: Foreign policy analysis is valid when it evaluates decisions based on the information and circumstances prevailing at the time they were made, not on the basis of outcomes that only become apparent after the crisis has ended.
SCFR Online-Opinion: Sanctions are gradually transforming from classical financial instruments into complex mechanisms for the containment of technology, data, and global supply chains.
SCFR Online – Opinion: Emmanuel Macron’s visit to Damascus is an attempt to redefine France’s role in Syria following the recent political developments in that country; an effort pursued within the context of great power competition and the country’s security challenges.
Strategic Council Online-Interview: An international technology expert said, “While the world is moving towards the bipolarization of cyberspace and digital separation, Iran is inevitably compelled to establish its independent position in the new data-driven order by redefining technology diplomacy.”
Strategic Council Online – Interview: A West Asia affairs analyst said: After the 12-day war, Iran, by redefining the discourse of resistance and utilizing media diplomacy, strengthened its soft and regional legitimacy against the Western narrative.
Strategic Council Online – Interview: A senior health-sector analyst stated that for Iran to become the regional pharmaceutical hub, it must shift the playing field in its favor. Iran’s strategy should be built on three pillars: speed, leveraging indigenous intelligence, and positive strategic dependence, to transform from a commodity seller into the architect and guarantor of regional health security.
Strategic Council Online– Opinion: One of the most significant impacts of the competition between China and the U.S. on Iran, which is considered an advantage, is that the issue of new technologies has shifted from a monopoly to a bipolar monopoly.

Online Strategic Council – Interview: An East Asian affairs analyst stated: “U.S.-China competition during Trump’s second term has taken on a structural nature, expanding from the economic level to the realms of technology, military, and global order.”
Strategic Council Online – Opinion: Today, submarine cables have become the backbone of the global economy and security. While China seeks to expand its influence through investments in submarine cable networks and the Digital Silk Road initiative, the United States strives to maintain control over the global digital order through deterrent strategies and multinational alliances. The geopolitical competition beneath the waves has now become one of the most sensitive arenas of confrontation between the two major powers, where data is the tool of power.
Online Strategic Council – Interview: A strategic studies researcher stated that following rapid regional developments and extensive wars in Gaza and Ukraine, the arena of discourse-building in West Asia and beyond has entered a new stage.
Strategic Council Online – A senior US affairs analyst stated that the overt intervention of billionaire and media mogul Elon Musk in the UK’s internal developments has once again brought the discussion about the role of non-state actors in international politics to the forefront of attention. With his provocative speech at the extreme right-wing rally in London, Musk not only called for the dissolution of parliament and early elections but also effectively sowed the seeds of political violence in the country’s fragile social fabric by promoting a rhetoric of “resistance or destruction.” UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer condemned these remarks, but the matter goes beyond a war of words. The emergence of figures like Musk, who simultaneously possess capital, media influence, and social popularity, has blurred the line between official politics and protest movements. This trend could become a serious challenge to the principle of non-interference in the internal affairs of countries, one of the fundamental principles of the UN Charter. International institutions have been designed primarily to control the actions of states, rather than billionaires who own global platforms. Today, however, developments show that technology and media giants can influence the political developments of countries as independent actors; a reality that could pose new questions to the international order regarding national sovereignty and political security.
Strategic Council Online – Opinion: Recently, the U.S. National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) has barred Chinese citizens from accessing its systems and facilities, a prohibition that even includes Chinese citizens possessing U.S. visas. This move can be interpreted as a sign of space competition between the United States and China.
