Episode: Crisis in the Geopolitics of MENA: “The More Things Change, the More They Stay the Same.”
Description: A year ago, the Middle East region was in a state of flux in certain ways, but seemed to be stabilising in others. Confrontation paradigms were giving way to what seemed to be de-escalation plans: Normalisation of relations between Saudi and Iran, and the widening of the Abraham Accords, among others. October 7 upended all of that – or did it? Dr HA Hellyer will examine how things have changed – and how, indeed, they’ve stayed the same.
