In a recent On Point broadcast, Carnegie's John Judis joins Karen Tumulty of Time Magazine, and On Point's Jack Beatty, to discuss the recent events during the first week of the New Year and what challenges are to come.

    Europe and the Arab Gulf Must Come Together

    The war in Iran proves the United States is now a destabilizing actor for Europe and the Arab Gulf. From protect their economies and energy supplies to safeguarding their territorial integrity, both regions have much to gain from forming a new kind of partnership together.
