In my latest analysis for @turkiyetodaycom , I examine how Ukraine's strikes on Crimea are disrupting Russian logistics, raising the costs of the war, and challenging assumptions that Russia's control of the peninsula is irreversible.

What does NATO 3.0 actually mean for the future of the Alliance?
My latest op-ed for @turkiyetodaycom examines the emerging vision of a Europe that assumes greater responsibility for its own defense while strengthening—not replacing—NATO.

The new U.S.-Iran ceasefire raises a difficult question: Did military action achieve more than diplomacy?
My latest op-ed for @turkiyetodaycom argues that the gains secured by the 2015 JCPOA may still exceed what has been achieved through war.

My latest for @turkiyetodaycom examines how stalled battlefield gains, mounting economic pressures, and rising public discontent are increasing the costs of the conflict for Moscow. With immense gratitude to @VorotnyukMaryna for her valuable insights:

The debate over expanding the Abraham Accords misses an important point: Türkiye and Israel already had decades of deep diplomatic, economic, military, and intelligence cooperation before the accords existed. Here is my latest for @turkiyetodaycom: https://t.co/kMhlGmvelG

BREAKING: Following the controversy surrounding Prime Minister Netanyahu’s confirmed secret visit to the UAE, it can now be revealed that not only the PM, the Mossad chief and the Shin Bet director visited the Gulf state during the war — but also IDF Chief of Staff Lt. Gen. Eyal Zamir. @YehoshuaYosi

No women, no cry?

At the China-US "G2" table, no real representation of humanity’s talent, perspectives, and leadership.

In the AI age, global diplomacy still sometimes looks like a meeting from the previous century.

[Peter Baker @peterbakernyt]

At a time of war in the Middle East, the US has no ambassador in Saudi Arabia, the UAE, Qatar, Iraq or Kuwait. At a time of war in Europe, there is no US ambassador in Russia or Ukraine. Altogether some 115 of 195 ambassador posts are vacant. @RobbieGramer https://t.co/MWF0wJSvE6

[Vali Nasr @vali_nasr]

For the the idea of a regional non-aggression pact based on Helsinki model to be workable there must be a U.S.-Iran non-aggression pact, which Tehran has been open to. Without it non-aggression pact gives Arab states security but not Iran. Second, a successful pact needs real economic engagement which was part of Helsinki and was a promise of Iran-Saudi normalization. This needs U.S. sanctions relief.

Arab states right can offer Iran neither security nor economic engagement on a non-aggression pact.
