SCFR Online – Opinion: On Friday, August 7, the heads of state of three countries – Saudi Arabia, Turkey, and Pakistan – signed a text under the title “Makkah Joint Defense Agreement.”
Strategic Council Online – Note: The initiative to revive the Hejaz Railway, beyond being a transportation project, constitutes an attempt to redefine geopolitics, the economy, and Turkey’s regional position; however, its realization appears to face significant financial, security, and institutional challenges.
SCFR Online – Opinion: The Strait of Hormuz crisis is no longer merely the consequence of a military confrontation, but rather a sign of the transition from the US-centered maritime order to a new energy security structure involving the participation of emerging and influential powers.
SCFR Online – Opinion: Iran’s active deterrence strategy, while increasing the costs of US intervention, has increasingly exposed the hidden rifts between Washington’s interests and those of the Israeli regime.
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: After the victory of the Islamic Revolution, relations between Iran and Egypt have been maintained at the level of the ‘interest section.’ Before anything else, this situation resulted from the “security vision” Egypt’s foreign policy adopted towards Iran, in addition to Cairo’s compliance with certain regional players and international pressures, especially from the United States.

Strategic Council Online – Opinion: In a situation where Western countries and the United States are not ready to take action to stop the crimes of the Zionist regime in Gaza, apparently, the only concern they have is the freedom of trade and shipping in the Red Sea!
Dr. Mohammad Mehdi Mazaheri – University professor
Strategic Council Online—Interview: The United States of America has recently announced that it will form a regional naval coalition to face Yemen’s Ansarollah attacks in the Red Sea. A coalition that showed its weakness from the beginning by failing to have the support of the Arab countries, and among the Arab countries, only Bahrain joined it.
Strategic Council Online – Interview: An expert on US affairs believes Biden has gambled the most on the war in Gaza and Ukraine and will pay a huge price in this regard in the upcoming presidential elections.
Strategic Council Online – Opinion: Yemen is the most important front that has been opened against the Zionist regime parallel with the Gaza war and has been able to inflict strategic and important blows on that regime in field and non-field dimensions.
Barsam Mohammadi – Expert on regional affairs
Strategic Council Online – Interview: An international affairs expert believes launching US military bases in Finland was not unusual or unpredictable. By becoming a member of NATO, that country is committed to providing bases to NATO members, especially the largest NATO member, the United States.
Strategic Council Online—Interview: An expert on West Asian issues emphasized that now the US and Europe are extremely worried about the prolongation of the war in Gaza because this situation increases the gaps between public opinion and differences with their governments, adding that despite sending a large amount of weapons from Western governments as well as all kinds of support in international organizations, support for the actions of the Zionist regime has decreased in the public opinion of these countries.
Strategic Council Online-Opinion: Relocating the residents of Gaza out of occupied Palestine is one of the serious plans of the Zionist regime in the recent war in Gaza. The documents provided to the Palestinian resistance groups show that the Zionist regime has long been seeking to “relocate the people of Gaza” to Egypt and the residents of the West Bank to Jordan.

Strategic Council Online—Interview: An expert on international affairs said the US plan to deploy medium-range missiles in East Asia aims to create an offensive capability against China, adding that naturally, the deployment of these missiles by the United States in countries such as Australia or possibly in Japan and South Korea can lead to China’s counter-reaction and increase the level of tensions between the two countries.
Strategic Council Online – Interview: An expert on West Asia affairs, while stressing that as the war dragged on, the position of Europe and the US regarding the nonrealization of the declared objectives of the Zionist regime has become realistic to some extent, noted: The experience of asymmetric wars shows that destroying Hamas militarily by the Zionist regime is impossible.
