Strategic Council Online – Note: The Makkah Defense Pact can be seen as a sign of regional countries’ efforts to reduce security dependence on extra-regional powers and redefine the balance in West Asia.
SCFR Online – Opinion: The Ukraine war, by exhausting US military capability on one hand and strengthening European defense capacity on the other, has altered the balance of power in the European continent, cast uncertainty over NATO’s future, and is driving it toward a European NATO.
SCFR Online – Opinion: The dissolution of the SDF, although considered an achievement for Turkey’s security, does not put an end to the challenges arising from the Israeli regime’s aggression and expansionism, refugees, and Syria’s fragility.
SCFR Online – Opinion: Concurrent with the official commencement of the United States’ economic war against our country, focusing on sanctions instruments, isolation, and economic pressure, what has now become increasingly important is the lack of alignment of other major global powers, especially China, with this policy.
SCFR Online – Opinion: The new US sanctions against Iran, despite extensive propaganda, face serious obstacles to success due to the ineffectiveness of sanctions tools and opposition from some of Tehran’s trading partners.
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 – Interview: Three months have passed since the operation by US special forces in Caracas – an operation in which Nicolás Maduro, the President of Venezuela, was abducted and transferred to New York. To examine the legal, political, and economic dimensions of this unprecedented event and its consequences, we have interviewed Soroosh Salami, an expert on Latin American affairs.
Strategic Council Online – Interview: A Latin American affairs expert believes that, although the United States of America is trying to impose “new colonialism” on the Latin American region, a new form of resistance, protest, and nationwide uprisings will likely emerge.
Strategic Council Online – Interview: The former ambassador to Caracas stated: “Washington aims to curb the influence of China and Russia, reestablish dominance over Venezuela’s oil and gas resources, and demonstrate power in global competition, seeking to restore its lost hegemony in Latin America and the international system.”
Strategic Council Online- Interview: A Latin American affairs analyst stated that with the return of the “maximum pressure” policy in Trump’s second administration, Washington’s anti-Iran model is being replicated this time in Latin America against Venezuela, a country that has now become a symbol of resistance against the U.S.-centric order.
Online Strategic Council – Dialogue: A Latin American affairs expert stated that the United States has recently announced it is engaged in an “armed war” with drug cartels in Latin America, and its forces have targeted several boats belonging to Venezuela and Colombia. The President of Colombia has condemned this action and even said that Donald Trump should be prosecuted. In light of these actions, Trump is moving further away each week from his commitment that “no new wars” would be started during his second term.
Strategic Council Online – Interview: A senior Latin American affairs analyst stated that the Trump administration’s view of South America is fundamentally defined by ideological pessimism and hostility towards socialist systems. Just as the United States pursued a policy of regime change in Cuba, Nicaragua, and Chile over the past decades, it is following the same approach in Venezuela.
Strategic Council Online – Opinion: The visit of the president of the Islamic Republic of Iran to three Latin American countries is considered one of the “very important” foreign policy events.
