Have the Iran-Israel Clashes put the Middle East in a New Permacrisis?

Sanam Vakil, Director of the MENA Programme at Chatham House & Bilal Saab, Adjunct Professor at Georgetown University

Israel and Iran’s clashes over April 2024 has left the Middle East in state of permacrisis. While immediate threat of war escalation seems to have subsided, the long term geopolitical implications are unprecedented. Many consider this to be a new reality for the region and how we interpret developments.

To explain why, Bilal Saab - professor at Georgetown’s School of Foreign Service & Dr Sanam Vakil - Director of Chatham House’s MENA programme, joined me for this extraordinarily timely conversation.
