Mohammad Marandi: "Dubai Is Never Going to Be Dubai Again" | Geopolitical Analysis Of Iran War
Published 4 weeks ago
Description

I am joined at the Valdai Discussion Club in Moscow by Professor Seyed Mohammad Marandi of the University of Tehran, who points out that seven months of siege and sanctions are strangling the oil-dependent Gulf monarchies that helped wage this war. With US bases around Iran destroyed or half destroyed, these states are emerging as diminished entities.
