VIDEO: The Middle East One Year After October 7
As the Middle East faces the prospect of a wider war, the Biden administration is seeking to limit the current conflict. Will the conflict escalate into a larger confrontation involving Israel, Iran, and other regional powers? What are the strategic calculations at play, and how is the Biden Administration navigating the complexities of containment?
On Monday, October 7, The National Interest hosted an expert panel discussion featuring:
—Greg Priddy, a Senior Fellow for the Middle East at the Center for the National Interest
—Joshua Yaphe, a Visiting Fellow at the Center and a former lead analyst for the Arabian Peninsula at the State Department’s Bureau of Intelligence and Research.
Both Priddy and Yaphe are regular contributors to The National Interest website. Priddy’s most recent article for it is “Targeting Iran’s Oil Could Backfire” and Yaphe’s is “Libya’s Unity Government Is Living on Borrowed Time.”
Jacob Heilbrunn, Editor of The National Interest moderated the discussion.
