For the First Time, the Two Shores of the Ocean Drift Apart

Europe wakes up to new apprehension tied to Russia every morning. Hardly a day passes without Russia disturbing the old continent. Their relationship began to deteriorate with the Russian-Ukrainian war. Since President Vladimir Putin launched his war on Ukraine on February 24, 2022, Europe’s…

An Updated and Revised Edition in Damascus

On this month of 2011, the so-called "Arab Spring" began in Tunisia. When Bashar al-Assad's regime fell this year in the same month, it seemed like this "spring" was returning or that a new edition had come to us. If we were to adopt the language of book editions and publishers, we could say that…

What Kuwait’s New Emir Knows

The late Sheikh Sabah Al-Ahmad Al-Jaber Al-Sabah, the former Emir of Kuwait, was renowned for his humanitarianism. He was known as the “Emir of humanitarian efforts” because he would immediately contribute to any humanitarian effort in any part of the world during his reign. He did not…

How Does France See Its Relationship With Algeria?

France was, perhaps still is, putting out the fire extinguishing the fire sparked by the killing of Nael Marzouki. The young man’s death at the hands of a police officer sparked unrest in different areas across the country. From his name, one can assume that Nael is of Arab descent. His…

Doha Is Beating Ankara to Cairo!

A day will come when those concerned with this region will write the history of its developments. They will give some time to the Gulf summit held in AlUla, Saudi Arabia, early this year, certainly not because it is the first Gulf summit of its kind. Indeed, a large number of similar summits had…
