SUMMARY:Virtual Event - The Evolving Situation in Iran: A View from Berlin
DESCRIPTION:[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]In recent months\, Iran has faced its most sustained wave of domestic protest in years\, as economic collapse and political frustration have driven thousands into the streets. Iranian security forces have responded with a harsh crackdown\, and the human toll continues to mount amid widespread reports of arrests and deadly force used against demonstrators. \nAt the same time\, rhetoric between Tehran and Washington\, D.C. has intensified. President Donald Trump has publicly urged Iranians to persist in protest and signaled that “help is on the way” for demonstrators\, while warning that Tehran must “show humanity” or risk U.S. action. Washington has also deployed significant naval assets to the region amid concerns over potential escalation. \nJoin us on February 20 at 11:00 am ET for a virtual discussion on the rapidly evolving situation in Iran\, featuring Dr. Cornelius Adebahr\, who brings a European perspective. The discussion will assess how Iranian leadership is navigating these internal pressures\, what the evolving U.S.–Iran dynamic means for Europe – especially Berlin and Brussels – and the implications for the transatlantic relationship\, from sanctions coordination to shared regional strategy.[/vc_column_text][vc_btn title=”Register Here” style=”classic” link=”url:https%3A%2F%2Fus02web.zoom.us%2Fwebinar%2Fregister%2F9317712798732%2FWN_s3QN4OJLR9Oqs7mbiECLVA” css=”.vc_custom_1771279908667{background-color: #1e73be !important;background-position: center !important;background-repeat: no-repeat !important;background-size: cover !important;}”][vc_column_text]Dr. Cornelius Adebahr has been working as an independent consultant and analyst based in Berlin\, where he works on European and global issues and promotes citizen dialogue on foreign policy.
