How Serbia’s Coronavirus Vaccines are Resetting Balkan Animosities
Harun Karčić, The National Interest - 5 hours ago
*Harun Karčić* *Balkans Coronavirus, Balkans* Serbia’s vaccine success story with the help of China and Russia will have strong geopolitical repercussions and are likely to cement a long-term Russian and Chinese presence in the region. “Are you going to Belgrade for a free vaccine?’’ This is one of the most common questions you can hear these days in Bosnia, Montenegro, and North Macedonia. The region is witnessing a spike in the number of Covid-19 infections and a huge number of deaths. In fact, Bosnia’s capital Sarajevo had, through the latter part of March 2021, the highest n...
Interests Over Ambitions: How Joe Biden Can Get a Win on Iran
Alexander Langlois, The National Interest - 5 hours ago
*Alexander Langlois* *Iran Diplomacy, Middle East* Long-term U.S. interests demand a shift away from the region, meaning that Iran and the United States will share overlapping interests should initial diplomatic overtures be resolved. The United States often tries to do too much with foreign policy. Nowhere is this more apparent than in the Biden administration’s attempts to re-enter the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA) with Iran. Maximalist approaches on Iran are driving the current game of chicken between the two states—much to the detriment of Middle East security an...

*Gerald M.

In 2016, following major attacks targeting Jewish and Israeli targets around the world, and based on earlier text adopted by the European Monitoring Centre on Racism and Xenophobia, the government-based International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance (IHRA) published a tw...
The Deal Is Not Enough: Why America Must Get More From Iran
Robert Clark, Eric Robinson, The National Interest - 5 hours ago
*Robert Clark, Eric Robinson* *Iran JCPOA, Middle East* The flaws of the original JCPOA have been highlighted and thoroughly exploited. A new, more comprehensive deal is now urgently needed. Ahead of this week’s talks in Vienna for the failing Iranian nuclear deal, Iran’s refusal last week to stop enriching uranium to 20 percent in return for sanctions relief is yet another signal that a return to 2015’s nuclear deal, the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA), is both undesirable and unattainable. Last Monday the Biden administration moved to revive talks over the JCPOA, by...
Suicide at Sea: How Russia’s Kursk Submarine Met a Fiery End
Kyle Mizokami, The National Interest - 5 hours ago
*Kyle Mizokami* *Russian Submarines, Europe* The Oscars needed to be fast to intercept American nuclear-powered aircraft carriers, and that meant they too needed nuclear propulsion. *Here's What You Need to Remember: *In the end, the sinking of the *Kursk* appears to have been caused by a simple, freak accident of chemistry. The tragedy only reinforces how dangerous life aboard a submarine really is, and how important safety is in the underwater realm.
