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.
SCFRonline – Opinion: The increase in public distrust of the French judicial system, which in recent surveys has reached approximately two-thirds of citizens, should be analyzed within a framework broader than temporary dissatisfaction or an emotional reaction to a particular criminal case.
SCFR Online – Opinion: The confrontation between Iran and the West has moved beyond traditional military arenas and now continues in the realm of perception, data, and artificial intelligence.
SCFR Online – Opinion: The dominant discourse in the field of European energy security over the past two decades has revolved around diversification of supply sources and the gradual reduction of dependence on fossil fuels. This narrative, which gained particular momentum after the Ukraine gas crisis in 2006 and its intensification in 2014 and 2022, was based on the assumption that Europe could free itself from the geopolitical vulnerabilities arising from dependence on specific suppliers through investment in renewable energy, imports of liquefied natural gas from diversified sources, and the establishment of new infrastructure. However, a closer analysis of energy trade data and the structure of the global oil and gas supply chain presents a different picture. Europe has not only failed to meaningfully reduce its dependence on the Persian Gulf, but in some sectors — particularly in liquefied natural gas imports — this dependence has deepened. This reality, which is often overlooked in public discourse, raises fundamental questions about the sustainability of Europe’s energy security strategies and their impact on regional power equations.
SCFR Online – Opinion: The growing divide between Europe and the United States is no longer merely a tactical disagreement, but rather a sign of strategic divergence and the redefinition of interests in a multipolar world.
SCFR Online – Opinion: The different policy that Europeans have adopted regarding the US war against Iran stems from disagreements that have emerged between the two sides in recent years, particularly during the Donald Trump administration.
SCFR Online – Opinion: America’s inability to achieve a decisive victory over Iran and its unfortunate economic consequences have permanently shattered the belief in Washington’s global dominance.
SCFR Online – Note: Europe’s refusal to align with the United States in the war against Iran is not a temporary tactic, but rather a sign of strategic divergence and a move toward forced autonomy.
Strategic Council Online – Opinion: Following the intensification of war crimes by the Zionist regime in Lebanon and Palestine, as well as acts of warmongering that have weakened the foundations of peace, stability, and sustainable security in the region—producing highly destructive economic, security, and political consequences at the global level—for the first time since the establishment of the Israeli regime in 1948, a wave of coordinated and increasing pressure has emerged in Europe to halt military cooperation with this regime; a wave that is influenced by the growing opposition of European public opinion to the criminal actions of the Zionist regime in West Asia.
SCFR Online – Interview: “No to War” is a slogan that has recently transformed into a practical strategy in Spain’s foreign policy—an approach that, according to Iran’s Ambassador to Madrid, has made this country one of the most explicit opponents of military intervention in West Asia.
Strategic Council Online – Opinion: Europe has spoken of “strategic autonomy” for years, but each new crisis reveals that the gap between its aspiration for self-reliance and the reality of its security dependence on the United States remains significantly unbridged.
