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: The future of the so-called Trump peace plan for Gaza, despite claims of an agreement on Hamas’s disarmament, remains shrouded in ambiguity due to structural deficiencies and opposition from key actors.
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 – 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—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 – Note: Since the beginning of the Gaza war, the US Secretary of State has visited Saudi Arabia twice and met and conferred with the kingdom officials. Tel Aviv Riyadh’s “reconciliation process” and the establishment of diplomatic relations were the most important agenda of the US secretary of state in his recent meeting with Saudi authorities (January 6, 2024).
Hamid Khoshayand – expert on regional issues
Strategic Council Online – Interview: An expert on European affairs said: The French foreign minister recently after two Zionist ministers demanded the settlement of the people of Gaza outside of this area, stated that “it’s not up to Israel to determine the future of Gaza, which is Palestinian land.”
Strategic Council Online—Opinion: ISIS, which has been in a relatively long period of inactivity, has recovered and started “meaningful movements” in recent months, at the same time as the crimes against humanity and the genocide of the Zionist regime in Gaza.
Barsam Mohammadi—Expert of regional issues
Strategic Council Online-Interview: An expert on American issues says the US-UK coalition attack on Yemen is unlikely to achieve their desired security in the Red Sea as well as the transit and traffic of cargo ships. Yemen’s response to the first strike of this coalition showed that Yemen would not give up its position regarding the ceasefire in Gaza and the end of Israeli attacks.
Strategic Council Online – Interview: A university professor says the Zionist regime was not successful in targeting Hamas leaders in Gaza, but it seems that it is now focused on assassinating the leaders of the Resistance and those who helped Hamas in the Al-Aqsa Operation Storm outside the borders of Gaza.
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.
Hamid Khoshayand – expert on regional issues
Strategic Council Online – Interview: An expert on Palestine affairs said: Yahya Sinwar, the head of the Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas) in the Gaza Strip, has recently sent an important and long message to the head and members of the political bureau of the movement, in which he mentioned that the Izz ad-Din al-Qassam Brigades (IQB) have launched an intense, harsh and unprecedented battle against the usurper forces, and the Zionist army has suffered heavy losses of life and equipment. In that message, Sinwar added: Al-Qassam brigades targeted at least 5,000 soldiers and officers during the ground war, one-third of whom were killed, one-third were seriously injured, and the last one-third suffered permanent disabilities. 750 units have been completely or partially destroyed at the level of military equipment and vehicles.
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!

Strategic Council Online – Interview: A university professor says the Zionist regime was not successful in targeting Hamas leaders in Gaza, but it seems that it is now focused on assassinating the leaders of the Resistance and those who helped Hamas in the Al-Aqsa Operation Storm outside the borders of Gaza.
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 – Interview: An expert on Palestine affairs said: Yahya Sinwar, the head of the Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas) in the Gaza Strip, has recently sent an important and long message to the head and members of the political bureau of the movement, in which he mentioned that the Izz ad-Din al-Qassam Brigades (IQB) have launched an intense, harsh and unprecedented battle against the usurper forces, and the Zionist army has suffered heavy losses of life and equipment. In that message, Sinwar added: Al-Qassam brigades targeted at least 5,000 soldiers and officers during the ground war, one-third of whom were killed, one-third were seriously injured, and the last one-third suffered permanent disabilities. 750 units have been completely or partially destroyed at the level of military equipment and vehicles.
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!

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?
