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: 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?
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 – Interview: An expert on Middle East issues said: After nearly 150 days have passed since the attacks of Israeli planes on Gaza and the unprecedented genocide in this city, regional and international efforts to end the Gaza crisis have intensified.

Hamid Khoshayand- Expert of regional issues
Strategic Council Online—Interview: An expert on regional issues said that sanctioning UNRWA and suspending financial aid to this aid organization in Palestine and Gaza is a retaliatory action by the United States and its allies against the provisional vote of the Hague Tribunal, which strongly condemned the Israeli regime and its supporters and put them against global public opinion and human rights laws.
Strategic Council Online – Interview: An expert on Middle East affairs says Saudi Arabia’s recent statement stands for two issues, which indicates Riyadh’s compliance with US policies. The first issue is that Saudi Arabia has supported the two-state plan with Washington’s backing. In contrast, the Palestinians and Resistance Axis countries have strong reservations about the two-state scheme.
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 – 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—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.
Hamid Khoshayand—Expert of regional issues
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.
Strategic Council Online – Interview: The Secretary of the Political Economy Department of the Iranian Association of West Asian Studies (IAWAS) said that the Zionist regime was the tenth destination for the export of Turkish goods in 2022 and noted: Although there are political tensions between Ankara and Tel Aviv, the common economic and security interests have Turkey to maintain its bilateral relations with the Zionist regime. Erdogan cares about the ties with the Zionist regime.
