On 8–9 September, SIPRI and the Middle East Council on Global Affairs (ME Council) co-hosted a workshop on the theme ‘Asia and the Middle East Beyond Energy: Towards Security and Defense Cooperation’.
Five new SIPRI materials provide dates, data and reflections on the events leading up to war in Iraq and developments for Iraq and beyond in the two decades since.
The discussion will bring together distinguished experts from the United States, Europe and Iran to provide their insights on the current situation and to assess potential consequences for transatlantic relations as well as for regional stability in the Middle East.
