Conflict & Conflict Resolution

In 2022, the war in Ukraine awakened Europe. Here’s how it must adapt in 2023 by the Atlantic Council Experts. Atlantic Council, February 2, 2023.
The landscape before the European Union (EU) at the beginning of 2023 is unrecognizable from that of just one year ago.

At the top is a combustible combination: in Israel, Benjamin Netanyahu is eager to stay in power to avoid corruption trials and leads the most hard-right government in the country’s history, and in Iran, the 83-year-old Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei, is worrying about succession and challenge to his rule. The implications for their societies, those they occupy, directly or by proxy, and the region are considerable.
