Seyed M. Marandi: Turkey’s Strategic Reimagining of the Middle East

And the ironic part is the patriotic, anti-immigrant faction within the UK mostly support Israel, despite Israel facilitating the very conditions they claim to oppose...

There are no direct flights between Turkey and Israel. However IST-TLV route was one of the most frequent international routes in the region before Turkish authorities banned the route.

Turkey has three walls it needs to break: 1. Eastern Wall broke by the karabagh war and the zangezur corridor. 2. Southern wall i.e. Syria (Shia wall) just broke and opened up. 3. Western wall —> Greece and Cyprus. This wall is loading. After this Turkey will open up

Turkish here. Mahandi's views, as expected, entirely reflect the Iranian perspective, but what he said about Europe's position was very striking; Europe remains extremely passive in Israel's policy of destabilization (and dehumanization) of the ME. Adopting a completely pro-US policy on issues that directly affect Europe, such as migration waves, alternative energy corridors and rising military escalation, demonstrates that Europe has not properly studied the geography. Erdogan on the other hand, and his so-called wahhabism (which basically adesses the Arap league) allience, can't work with Israel in perfect harmony in the next decade, unlike the way of Mahandi's projection. There're more dynamics which will be able to easily attract the China's and Russia's attention into the ME.

This was a very interesting discussion. Thank you both.

Excellent, but you're missing the bigger picture. This is the fundamental flaw with most analysts—they present historical facts without grasping the grand strategy playing out behind the scenes.

Always great to see Prof” M Marandi.. Stay Safe Prof M Marandi..❤️👍

Excellent interview

This is one of the best all encompassing analysis shows Ive ever heard on the world players and how they are lining up for what I believe will be the final showdown
