In this episode of MEnbar, Marc Owen Jones speaks with Sanam Vakil, Director of the Middle East and Africa Programme in Chatham House, about the Twelve Day War between Israel and Iran and its impacts on Iran’s nuclear program. Vakil discusses the implications of these attacks on Iran’s domestic policies, its deterrence strategies, and the future of the Axis of Resistance amidst growing uncertainty about Iran’s regional influence. She also examines the relationship between Iran, Israel and the GCC countries in the context of growing regional instability and the uncertainty surrounding (evolving) US-GCC ties under the new U.S. administration.
