Post-Assad Syria and Kurdistan: Chess of diplomacy and conflict
I would like to recommend three short articles for the next lecture. They analyze the current situation in the Middle East, focusing on the role of the Kurdish minority, and explore recent developments related to Ahmed al-Sharaa’s political transition from a jihadist background associated with the al-Nusra Front and HTS to his current leadership role in Syria. Authored by a highly ambitious young researcher surely known to you, these articles are essential reading for those i

The War That Outgrew Sudan Middle East Rivalries Are Turning a Local War Into a Regional Crisis by Alex de Waal
Last summer, after more than two years of terrible fighting, it looked as though the United States might finally have landed on a viable approach for ending the civil war in Sudan. Since the conflict began in April 2023, Sudan’s state has collapsed, and its people have suffered the world’s largest humanitarian crisis. The battle lines have moved back and forth across the country, devastating the capital, Khartoum, and a score of other cities. Today, Khartoum and places east o

"On a bitterly cold December evening in 1997, President Bill Clinton was leaving a holiday concert at the Kennedy Center when he noticed a homeless veteran sitting outside the entrance, shivering in a thin jacket and holding a cardboard sign that simply read 'Marine - Desert Storm - Hungry.' What happened next shocked everyone in the presidential motorcade—Clinton immediately stopped, took off his own overcoat, draped it around the stunned man's shoulders, and sat down on the

Clinton to Obama on November 5, 2008,
On the morning of November 5, 2008, at exactly 6:00 a.m., Barack Obama was sitting alone in a small room at the transition offices in Chicago when his phone rang. The election was over, but the work had not yet begun. He answered without ceremony. “Congratulations,” said Bill Clinton. The call was not brief. It lasted more than an hour. Clinton did not speak in slogans or memories. He spoke in lists, cautions, and quiet warnings. He began with the first hundred days. Cabinet

Article Recommendation: "Can Pakistan Play a Role in Regime Change in Afghanistan?" for RUSI, by Masom Jan Masomy
The article argues that although Pakistan has historically played an interventionist role in Afghanistan, it no longer has the capacity or regional support to engineer regime change against the Taliban today. Relations between Pakistan and Afghanistan sharply deteriorated after military clashes in October 2025, the suspension of trade, and a rise in attacks by Tehrik-e-Taliban Pakistan (TTP) inside Pakistan. While Pakistan demands that Kabul curb TTP activities, the Taliban-l

An Interview with Dr. Yunus Emre Ozigci from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Turkey, on NATO's Meaning and Existence
In NATO’s Meaning and Existence: Within the Interstate Intersubjectivity (2026) , Ozigci treats NATO as an intersubjective phenomenon rather than an objective entity. To him, NATO “does not exist objectively” but rather appears “meaningfully through intersubjective recognition.” His skillful integration of philosophical innovations from such thinkers as Edmund Husserl, Martin Heidegger, and Jean-Paul Sartre supports his deep insights into Kenneth Waltz's structural interpreta
