The Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty is one of the most remarkable achievements of the post-World War II era. Some 98% of the world’s nations agreed to either give up their sovereign rights to acquire nuclear weapons - or if they already had them, to gradually get rid of their arsenals. The few holdouts deserve special treatment relative to their unique cases. But now, for the first time, there is simultaneously a two-front attack on the NPT regime which is administered by the IAEA: Russia’s rhe...

The Israel Defense Forces changes its top leader every four years. The current chief, Lieutenant General Aviv Kochavi, is due to retire at the turn of the year. He is already preparing his end of tour report by testing his forces through a month-long exercise, Chariots of Fire – which was held not only in Israel but also above the Mediterranean, in the Red Sea and in a complex Special Forces simulation in Cyprus. Meanwhile, Israel’s military, security and police forces kept their counter-terror ...

The Kurdish minorities in several Middle Eastern countries have never been close to fulfilling their historical dream of creating a Kurdistan, which will inevitably mean cutting territories out of nations currently with sovereignty over them. They nevertheless keep trying - and by the same measure - those nations are resisting Kurdish efforts. None more so than Turkey, which has often raided Kurdish enclaves in neighboring Syria and Iraq, in order to degrade the power of what it considers terror...

In a week’s time, Israel will mark Benjamin Netanyahu’s first year out of power. His rivals have managed to hold together a unique right-center-left coalition - united on almost no issue save the determination to block Netanyahu’s return to the office he occupied for the preceding dozen years. The government headed by Naftali Bennett and his Alternate, Foreign Minister Yair Lapid, has managed to survive several consecutive policy and personal crises, but is under constant external and internal p...

When Special Envoy for Iran in the State Department Rob Malley testified during a Senate committee on the Biden Administration’s policy last week, he expressed a rather pessimistic view of the prospects for a renewed nuclear deal. Such an agreement, he said, is better than the present situation because without it, “Iran advanced its program by accumulating sufficient quantities of enriched uranium and making technological gains that have left the breakout time as short as roughly a few weeks, li...

The Islamic regime in Tehran does not derive its legitimacy and authority from popular support. It claims divine backing, but just in case - relies on brute force, through the Revolutionary Guards Corps and other military, security and police organizations. Nevertheless, the problems endemic to Iran’s economy and exacerbated by the sanctions imposed on its exports and investments have enhanced public dissent. It is also obvious that China’s preference for buying cheaper oil from Russia, which ne...

NATO’s need for agreement across the board is now being challenged by Turkey’s conditions for admitting Finland and Sweden into the alliance. Regardless of the merits of Turkey’s case, the issue at stake is the ability of a holdout, last man standing, to torpedo a plan all others wish to advance, or conversely exact a high price for withdrawing this refusal. The usual slogans about “United We Stand” and “Stronger Together” collide with the reality of sovereign governments with either legitimate ...

For the last 17 years, Israel has been out of the Gaza District, having unilaterally left it under Palestinian rule. For 15 of those years, Hamas has controlled this jam-packed narrow territory and its two million inhabitants. And for 11 of those, the leader of Hamas and therefore of Gaza has been Yahya Sinwar, a tough operative Israel was forced to release from jail in a prisoner exchange deal.

Earlier this month, the European Union convened in Brussels a meeting of representatives of mostly Arab and European nations and organizations, along with the United States and Japan. The agenda had to do with the humanitarian situation in Syria and the country’s political future, as well as the determination to keep fighting Daesh (Islamic State); but absent from the conference were three major players in the deadly Syrian game - Russia, Iran and Israel. The complex relationship in this triangl...

U.S. President Joe Biden intends to visit Israel and the Palestinian Authority next month, in a show of support for their governments and for an internationally aspired Two-State solution. However, the fragility of the Israeli ruling coalition - which is hanging by a thread- prevents any substantive progress on the Israel-Palestinian file – at a time when alternate arenas are seemingly prioritized over the decades old conflict. Moreover, Jerusalem is trying to harness the United States to its to...

The Vienna talks on reviving the dormant Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action regarding Iran’s nuclear ambitions have seemingly been on hold for several weeks now, with the parties closer than ever but unable to close the deal yet. The negotiations are complicated by two of the parties: Russia in the negotiating room and the United States in the corridor outside the door, as opponents in the Ukraine war which evidently takes priority over all most everything else. Meanwhile, the Iranians are makin...

On the 15th of this month Lebanese voters will elect a new parliament. The 128 seats are allocated along “confessional” and geographical lines. As no party can garner a majority, the government is thus always based on complex coalitions. Lebanon is in permanent crisis, economically and socially. Its ruling elite is corrupt. As there is no independent security agenda or foreign policy due to Hezbollah’s influence, the government is therefore subject the competing interests of Iran, Israel and Sau...

Europe’s geo-political construct is seemingly shifting – a reaction to domestic sentiments, largely triggered by Russia’s invasion of Ukraine. And while societies aspire to regain a lost sense of stability – including by deepening the trans-Atlantic partnership - European capitals also opt to reintroduce conservative principles, setting those in an inevitable collision-course with the Institutions of the European Union, which are almost exclusively dominated by the liberal left.

Is the North Atlantic Treaty Organization a stabilizing force in European affairs, or a trigger for the Russian preemptive aggression? When the leaders of the 30-member meet late June in Madrid, they will consider how the alliance protects its current membership and encourages expansion. Russia is vehemently opposed to any of its neighbors coming under the NATO umbrella - a major cause for Vladimir Putin’s war against Ukraine; where Russian brutality has prompted nations which heretofore did not...

Seven years after Iran reached a nuclear deal with the five permanent members of the UN Security Council, Germany and the European Union, the talks over the revival of the agreement - which was breached by the Trump administration and then by Tehran - are close to the finish line but are apparently stalled there.
