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: Middle powers such as India, Turkey, Australia, and some Persian Gulf countries are no longer marginal actors, but are redefining global power equations through balancing diplomacy.

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: An expert on Russian issues, stating that Iran and Russia are willing to create a comprehensive agreement with other countries in the region for electrical connection, emphasized that the large plans and electrical connection of the countries to each other will contribute to their greater political-economic and security intertwining. Moreover, adding the Republic of Azerbaijan and Georgia to this circle will reduce the intensity of tensions in the region and help further the region’s development.
Strategic Council Online: An expert on cyberspace international governance, stating that artificial intelligence can change the global strategic stability and fundamental assumptions about defense and deterrence, said: Europe’s approach to artificial intelligence is regulation and standardization, and if we want to move towards interaction with Europe in the area of artificial intelligence, we must clarify our positions and approach concerning some issues.
Strategic Council Online: The head of the Science-Technology Commission of the Strategic Council on Foreign Relations, emphasizing the need to analyze strategies and achievements of artificial intelligence in the three dimensions of “investment,” “implementation,” and “innovation,” said: Each of the leading countries, have defined a main vision and strategy in the field of artificial intelligence for themselves, and considering the global division of labor, it is necessary to examine what this vision could be for Iran?
Strategic Council Online – Opinion: Africa is the continent of “opportunities” with the largest natural resource reserves.
