Speaking on Fox Business News, Carnegie’s Matthew Rojansky stated: “What’s really important here is to realize the unprecedented nature of folks coming out of this region...from the former Soviet space coming and attacking the United States. Given that fact, it just underscores that Russia and the United States are facing broadly the same adversary. That’s a point that the Russians have tried to make for years and I think, in the United States, it’s time we have to start listening to that and cooperating pragmatically even though we’ve got a lot of differences with Putin and the Kremlin. This is an area where, clearly, we have to be sharing the intelligence that we have.”

    The Iran War’s Dangerous Fallout for Europe

    The drone strike on the British air base in Akrotiri brings Europe’s proximity to the conflict in Iran into sharp relief. In the fog of war, old tensions in the Eastern Mediterranean risk being reignited, and regional stakeholders must avoid escalation.

    The EU Needs a Third Way in Iran

    European reactions to the war in Iran have lost sight of wider political dynamics. The EU must position itself for the next phase of the crisis without giving up on its principles.

    Global Instability Makes Europe More Attractive, Not Less

    Europe isn’t as weak in the new geopolitics of power as many would believe. But to leverage its assets and claim a sphere of influence, Brussels must stop undercutting itself.
