Why Iran? Israel, the United States, and Regional Order in the "New" Middle East


Monday 30 March 2026, 5.30 p.m.

Amid growing international volatility and a regional context marked by expanding violence, Prof. Al-Marashi, Prof. Redaelli, and Dr. Perletta analyze how the ongoing war in Iran is redefining Tehran's role in a "new" Middle East and reshaping its domestic dynamics. The regional and international implications of the joint Israel–United States strike of February 28th, 2026 — and the subsequent escalation and broadening of the conflict — will also be assessed through a range of multiple analytical perspectives.
