The conflict in Iran, which has spread across the Middle East and disrupted the global economy, has far-reaching consequences. Regardless of where this rapidly evolving situation stands on the date of this session, a number of conclusions can already be drawn and discussed regarding its geopolitical effects, many of which are likely to be felt for years to come. With this in mind, the presentation will endeavour to examine the economic, political, and military challenges arising from the war.
