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 – 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?
SCFR Online – Opinion: The continuation of the US war against Iran, in addition to increasing operational costs, has called into question the actual capacity of the American arsenal to simultaneously fulfill security commitments on multiple fronts; an issue that affects deterrence, defense production capacity, and Washington’s resource prioritization.
Strategic Council Online – Opinion: The second round of the Iran-Saudi-China trilateral meeting, hosted by Riyadh, signals the development of relations in an atmosphere of increasing regional and international tensions and uncertainties. The meeting also confirmed China’s role beyond facilitating the revived relations between Tehran and Riyadh and related to China’s political economy perspective in the Middle East, which has significant implications for the Beijing-Washington macro-rivalry.
Strategic Council Online – Opinion: On the last day of October this year, North Korean media reported on the country’s new missile test.

Strategic Council Online – Opinion: The recent BRICS meeting ended with a symbolic image of the BRICS currency in the hands of Russian President Vladimir Putin. Perhaps, before this meeting, some experts did not believe in continuing BRICS as a block (or newly emerging network). Although India’s veto of Turkey’s membership showed that BRICS has a relatively long way to go to gain power from the expansion channel of the alliance, views on BRICS show it to be largely successful. BRICS money and its display in Putin’s hands are signs of seriousness in BRICS and its increasing importance in the future.

Nevertheless, China is trying to resolve the dispute peacefully.
Strategic Council Online—Interview: An international issues expert said the expansion of China’s nuclear arsenal should be analyzed in the framework of the strategy of “nuclear superiority,” in which a tripolar nuclear world will be formed.

Strategic Council Online – Opinion: Before the Russia-Ukraine war, few imagined the world would once again be thrust into the abyss of war and the tensions that accompany it. But now, the shadow of conflict looms over many parts of the globe.
Strategic Council Online – Interview: An expert on European issues said: Recently, China’s Ministry of Commerce filed a complaint with the World Trade Organization (WTO) regarding the EU’s imposition of additional tariffs on Chinese electric vehicles.
