    Trump's Endgame in the War on Iran

    Four weeks into the war, uncertainty continues to prevail. Following a 48-hour ultimatum threatening strikes on Iran’s energy infrastructure, US President Donald Trump announced the start of negotiations aimed at reaching an agreement to end the conflict. However, Iranian officials have denied that any talks are underway, while the country continues to face ongoing bombing. With a fragile diplomatic window, US objectives in the war remain difficult to grasp, and a number of pressing questions persist: What does the US Administration aim to achieve through this war? What is Trump's endgame? And, more broadly, what kind of Middle East does he envision? In this episode of MED Insights, Nicola Missaglia – Curator of the MED and Head of Communications and Publishing at ISPI – speaks with Daniel Kliman, Senior Vice President for Global Power Shifts at the German Marshall Fund of the United States.

    How Will the War on Iran End? A Conversation with Vali Nasr

    Three weeks after the US–Israel attacks on Iran, there is still no sign of de-escalation. Instead, Israel’s strikes on Iran’s gas infrastructure and Iran’s retaliation targeting Gulf energy assets are turning what began as a military confrontation into a broader crisis with global implications for energy markets and economic stability, well beyond the Middle East.What strategic objectives are driving this escalation? What scenarios may unfold in the coming weeks? And what could this war mean for the region – and for the global order? To explore these questions, in this episode of MED Insights, Nicola Missaglia - Curator of the MED Dialogues and Head of Communications and Publishing at ISPI - speaks with Vali Nasr, Majid Khadduri Professor of Middle East Studies and International Affairs at the Johns Hopkins School of Advanced International Studies (SAIS).

    Inside the Gulf's Power Rift

    In recent months, a growing rift has emerged between two of the Middle East’s powerhouses: Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates. What began as an escalation in Yemen rapidly evolved into a broader diplomatic and political crisis between Riyadh and Abu Dhabi. Yet the divide extends far beyond Yemen, revealing a deeper geopolitical competition unfolding across the Middle East, Africa, and the Red Sea. How did this rift emerge? And what consequences might it hold for the region? In this second episode of MED Insights, Nicola Missaglia - Curator of the MED and Head of Communications and Publishing at ISPI - speaks with Firas Maksad, Managing Director, Middle East & North Africa at Eurasia Group and Eleonora Ardemagni, Senior Associate Reaseach Fellow at ISPI.

    What life for Iran: fear, repression and the quest for a deal with Trump

    As negotiations between the US and Iran get underway in Oman, the threat of a US attack on Iran continues to loom. At the same time, the protests of late December and early January have brought into sharp focus the Islamic Republic’s deep-rooted, systemic, and multifaceted crisis. What is happening in Iran? Are we truly on the verge of a new agreement, or heading toward a renewed confrontation between Washington and Tehran? And what future lies ahead for the Islamic Republic? In this first episode of MED Insights, Nicola Missaglia - Curator of the MED and Head of Communications and Publishing at ISPI - speaks with Ali Vaez, Director of the Iran Project and Senior Adviser to the President at the International Crisis Group, and Sanam Vakil, Director of the Middle East and North Africa Programme at Chatham House.
