  • Institutional

The recent developments in Syria, marked by the fall of Bashar Al-Assad's regime and the rise of an interim government led by the Hayat Tahrir al-Sham group, have triggered a new wave of tension in the Middle East, with impacts that extend beyond the country's borders.

The discussion will address the roles of internal and external actors, the challenges faced by the new government in its pursuit of stability and consolidation, as well as the political, social, and economic ramifications. Invited experts will share their perspectives on Syria’s current situation and debate its implications for regional geopolitics, the Middle East, and the international system, offering a comprehensive analysis of the potential impacts of this milestone in international geopolitics.
