Mideast Intricacies amid Strategic Power Competition

Israel at War. For a rare moment earlier this week, all of the world’s leading powers were almost on the same page. This occurred when the UN Security Council voted for a Ramadan ceasefire, with Russia and China, Britain, France and others in favor and the US abstaining. This, however, seems like an exception to the current rule of a total breach between the American and the Russian-Chinese camps. With Israel and the moderate Arab countries in the first camp and Iran in the second, how does the great power competition play out now in the Middle East?

With us for the exploration we are joined by:
