Thrilled to share that I have recently submitted a #research paper titled “Navigating the Shifting Sands: Strategic Factors Influencing #Khaleeji Policymaking Amid Emerging Regional Dynamics” to The 9th Annual International Interdisciplinary Conference, organized by #Qatar_University’s Gulf Studies Center in cooperation with the State of #Qatar Chair for Islamic Area Studies at #Waseda University, #Japan. I am also excited to announce that I will be participating in the panel titled “A View from Within: Emerging Regional Order and Policymaking in the Gulf.” The conference will be held on November 17-18. Paper Abstract The paper investigates the #strategic factors shaping the decision-making processes of #Gulf Cooperation Council (#GCC) states in the context of an increasingly complex and shifting regional order. With the Gulf region at the intersection of global energy markets, evolving security dynamics, and economic transformation, Khaleeji policymakers face unprecedented challenges in navigating these multifaceted issues. This study delves into the interplay of internal and internal external forces—ranging from security threats and economic diversification to global geopolitical shifts—that are recalibrating the strategic calculations of GCC leaders. The research explores key drivers, including the impact of fluctuating oil prices, the shifting allegiances in the post-Arab Spring era, the increasing influence of non-state actors, and the emerging roles of international powers such as the United States, #China, and #Russia in the Gulf. Additionally, the paper examines how Khaleeji states are responding to these dynamics through strategies focused on political stability, economic reforms, and regional integration efforts. By employing a multidisciplinary approach that integrates political science, economics, and international relations, this paper provides an in-depth analysis of how Khaleeji states are reshaping their policies to adapt to this new era of regional and international (dis)order. The analysis will not only highlight the strategic imperatives that drive Gulf policymaking but also offer insights into the future trajectories of governance and security in the region. The paper is aimed at policymakers, researchers, and scholars with an interest in the Gulf’s evolving strategic landscape, offering recommendations for fostering stability and influence amid a rapidly changing global and regional environment. Looking forward to engaging discussions and valuable insights at the conference!

It was a great pleasure to give an #ESMYouthTalk at the Athens University of Economics and Business. I spoke about the first 25 years of the euro and the value of unity. Students are the first generation growing up with the €. When asked what impact this has had on their life most pointed to stability and safety, but crisis was also mentioned. They see war and inflation, climate crisis and digital transition as main long-term challenges for Europe The history of the euro is marked by steps increasing its resilience - importantly also creation of the ESM - European Stability Mechanism as crisis resolution mechanism. European resilience builds on solidarity when countries are in need. Effective economic policy coordination and a deepening of the single market are needed to cope with geopolitical and climate risks. European resources - incl. the ESM toolbox - should be used effectively to mitigate these risks. I thank Athens University of Economics and Business for the hospitaliy and students for their interest and engagement.

BRICS have emerged as key players in the global economy, leading the charge for a new global development agenda. This new development agenda will require a long-term vision that emphasizes sustainable development and inclusivity. There needs to be a shift away from traditional forms of development to focus on implementing new innovative strategies that will accelerate economic growth and promote greater access and equality. In so doing, the BRICS will be well-positioned to drive a new era of global development that prioritizes sustainability, inclusivity, and growth for all.
