President Donald Trump has announced a ceasefire between Israel and Lebanon. For now, a ceasefire arrangement with Iran also appears to be holding. Meanwhile, Pakistan’s Field Marshal Asim Munir visited Tehran for negotiations. President Trump has once again stated that the parties are very close to ending the war, although some experts caution that the agreement remains highly fragile. How might developments in the Middle East unfold?
At the same time, Russia has intensified its attacks on Ukrainian civilians as well as along the front lines. How will the war between Ukraine and Russia evolve, and what are the chances that it might end in the near future?
On these and other issues, we spoke in today’s podcast with Miro Popkhadze, Senior Fellow at the Delphi Strategic Research Center.
