Can Iran outlast US pressure? Prof Michael Clarke says #Iran may have more economic time than the #US has political time, with routes via the #Caspian and #Russia. “There’s nothing that the Americans can do really to stop that happening.” 🔗bit.ly/3Sr91WO #geopolitics

Could Ukraine’s strikes on #Crimea shift the balance against #Putin? Dr Domitilla Sagramoso says Crimea tied to Putin’s prestige, and #Ukraine may be seeking to pressure #Russia into talks, while #Moscow is likely to reinforce the region in response. 🔗bit.ly/4eH1AlW

Can #Europe decouple its #military supply chains from #China? Dr Bence Nemeth says it’s unlikely in the short term. China dominates rare earths and critical minerals, so the realistic trend is “de-risking” rather than full decoupling. 🔗bit.ly/3SkEJVK #NATO #RareEarths
