Putin fears the end is near

The Victory Day parade scheduled for this weekend has been scaled back over fears of a drone attack. Oil depots are burning at an unprecedented rate.

Erdogan is trying to establish himself as a mediator in a series of conflicts, including between Iran and the US, Pakistan and Afghanistan, as a means of projecting power.

Will Joseph Aoun bring peace to Lebanon?

Lebanese President Joseph Aoun may be willing to reach an agreement with Israel, but not for the reasons Israelis assume. Like other actors in the region, he understands that Israel cannot be defeated on the battlefield. But on the diplomatic front, Israel suffers from inconsistency and often ends up accepting US dictations.
