Speaker: John Psaras

Topic: Syria After Assad: Will There Ever Be Peace in the Middle East and What Will the New Chess Board Look Like from Here?

The Middle East's geopolitical landscape is constantly evolving. The fall of Assad has weakened Iran's influence, while Israel has made tactical gains against groups like Hezbollah. The region's balance of power is shifting, but it's too early to tell if these changes will lead to lasting peace or further conflict. Come Dine and Discuss the complex possibilities!
