Requirements for Iran’s Positioning in New World Order
Strategic Council Online – Guest opinion: In recent years, the discussion of changes in the world order, the conditions and reasons for this, and its requirements for different countries has become one of the serious topics in the field of foreign policy studies and international relations. Such changes include political, economic, and cultural areas at the global level, which cause changes in the way countries interact with each other, as well as changes in the way international conflicts are resolved. But what are the signs of this change in the international political order? And how can one successfully get the right place in this new order?
