Self-doubt and self-abasement, which have defined the European approach to Trump, are no substitute for strategy. Ankara must be the moment Europe stops mourning the NATO it knew — and build the one it needs. Read @galipdalay.bsky.social's analysis ahead of the NATO summit in Ankara, for @time.com.

Stop Mourning the Old NATO. Build the New One.

"The NATO summit in Ankara should serve as the moment Europe accepts full responsibility for its own security and its proximate security environment," writes Galip Dalay.

Important piece about the realignment that is taking place in the Middle East as a result of Israel's new "forward defense doctrine." Since October 7, Israel has struck at least 6 countries in the region. Whereas Arab states used to be concerned about Iran, most regional actors now fear Israel.+

If Washington wants to foster regional stability in the Middle East, it must stop ignoring Israeli revisionism—and “anchor U.S. policy in support of a just resolution of the Palestinian question,” argue @galipdalay.bsky.social and Sanam Vakil.
