SCFR Online-Opinion: Sanctions are gradually transforming from classical financial instruments into complex mechanisms for the containment of technology, data, and global supply chains.
SCFR Online – Opinion: Emmanuel Macron’s visit to Damascus is an attempt to redefine France’s role in Syria following the recent political developments in that country; an effort pursued within the context of great power competition and the country’s security challenges.
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 – Note: In today’s global politics, the creation of narratives has become as important as territorial control and economic management, and has turned into the main tool of great power competition.
Strategic Council Online – Note: Hamas’s handing over the civilian management in Gaza is assessed as an attempt to reduce political pressures, facilitate reconstruction, and preserve the status of resistance in the future equations of Palestine.
SCFR Online – Opinion: At a time when the West Asia region, particularly in recent months, has been undergoing the most complex political and security developments of the past half-century, the sudden decision by the cabinet of the Zionist regime to recognize the Armenian genocide committed by Turkey, which has faced strong condemnation and opposition from Ankara and Baku, raises questions.
SCFR Online – Opinion: The recent aggressive war launched by the United States and the Zionist regime against the Islamic Republic of Iran not only failed to strengthen NATO, but also exposed the structural weaknesses, deep divisions, and identity crisis of this alliance more than ever before.
SCFR Online – Opinion: The competition between China and the United States is no longer solely about economics or military power, but is now centered on the control of algorithms, data, and the governance rules of artificial intelligence.
Strategic Council Online – Interview: A senior European affairs analyst stated that Germany’s support for the Israeli regime in the 12-day war against Iran stems from its historical commitment to this regime. Friedrich Merz, Germany’s Chancellor from the Christian Democratic Party, firmly backed the Israeli regime’s attacks on Iran in June 2025, calling them a “dirty job for everyone’s benefit” and part of the Israeli regime’s “self-defense.” This stance is rooted in Germany’s historical commitment to the security of the Israeli regime (Staatsräson), which has been reinforced since the Holocaust and Angela Merkel’s 2008 speech at the Knesset. At the G7 summit and a conference in Berlin, Merz cited Iran’s underground facilities, arguing that the attacks were necessary to prevent Iran from obtaining nuclear weapons. Germany’s Foreign Minister, Johann Wadephul, also reiterated support for the Israeli regime’s “right to self-defense.” This position has faced domestic and international criticism. Germany’s unconditional support, aligned with Western geopolitical interests against Iran, signals a shift toward a more aggressive foreign policy. This stance has sparked criticism both at home and abroad.
Strategic Council Online – Nearly one hundred years after the mass killing of the Herero and Nama tribes by German troops during the Namibian occupation, German Foreign Minister Haiku Moss officially acknowledged the atrocities committed by the German military in Namibia and the “genocide” in that country. According to the minister, Germany’s goal is to erase the memory of the massacres from the minds of the survivors of the victims. ‘We are pleased to be able to reach an agreement with Namibia on dealing with the darkest part of our common history. Recognizing this negligence and our request for compensation is an important step in repairing the remnants of this crime’.

Strategic Council Online – An expert on international affairs commenting on the opposition of some European governments, including France and Germany, to holding anti-Israel demonstrations and supporting the Palestinian people, said: European governments have shown that they pursue a contradictory policy on human rights, the clear example of which is their controversial view which can be seen on the question of Palestine and Israel. Their recent measures in banning rallies in support of the Palestinian people show that they only claim freedom of expression and support of human rights.
