Israel and Syria negotiate for peace after eight years again, now it’s Lebanon’s turn

  • Autor: Katarína Mózová, 14.08.2008

Two states, which have been formally in state of war since the so-called Six-Day War in 1967, restored indirect peace negotiations headed by Turkey, which has strived to act as a catalyst for peace in the Middle East for a long time. It was not until May 2008 that all sides confirmed officially this message, although negotiations had already been under way for several months by that time. Israeli occupation of the strategic territory…

Geoenergy policy of the EU as a possible basis for new geopolitical doctrine

  • Autor: Pavel Usov, 08.08.2008

Irrespective of its economic potential and political prospects, the European Union (EU) remains a weak geopolitical player with plenty of conflicting national interests and geostrategic priorities. These discrepancies cause that all European Council’s attempts to set a cohesive geopolitical course and joint foreign policy have failed. The EU cannot exist as a united suprastate whole without this. As long…

Regional Interests of Syria

  • Autor: Katarína Mózová, 21.02.2008

The capital of Syria Damascus has been the capital city of Arab culture since January, and it will be until the the end of 2008. Although Syria was the only state left out of the Middle East tour of the U.S. President George Bush Jr. in January, it cannot be said that we have not heard of it throughout last months. It was also in relation to the attack of Israeli air forces on the Syrian territory in September, in relation…

Teheran has been uniting ideology and pragmatism

  • Autor: Katarína Mózová, 15.01.2008

After 3rd December, 2007, when the US National Intelligence Council released a report, the advocates of the attack on Iran were deprived of one of the reason for its conduction. In the report called Iran: Nuclear intentions and capabilities (1) the CIA claims “with a high degree of certainty” that Teheran terminated its nuclear program yet prior to 2003 and doesn’t resume it nowadays.In spite of the statements…

The characteristics of the relationships between Syria and Lebanon

  • Autor: Pavol Struhár, 18.12.2006

The political scene in Lebanon has been stormy in recent months. Frankly, it is not just a matter of the recent months. It is the result of long-lasting problems in Lebanese society, which have culminated after a relatively short calm period. Besides several internal factors badly affecting the political life in Lebanon (particularly from the Muslim point of view, the antiquated as well as unjust system of the division…

Relations between Iran and Hezbollah and their impact on political events in the Middle East

  • Autor: Pavol Struhár, 18.09.2006

After the political wing of Hamas won the Palestinian elections last year, new political or even military conflicts between the Jewish state and the new Palestinian government, considered by some Jewish officials to be terrorist, were taken into account. But it was Lebanon rather than Hamas who was in battle with Israel from July 12 to the half of August 2006 – in particular the radical Hezbollah…

Unfavorable conditions for democratization in Saudi Arabia

  • Autor: Pavol Struhár, 03.08.2006

Elections into 178 regional assemblies took place in the year 2005 in Saudi Arabia between February 10 and April 21. Despite the fact that these elections were only communal and for various reasons non-democratic and illegitimate (e.g. half of the assembly is decreed by the government, women could not participate in the elections) their importance is multiplied by the fact that it was the first time…

The Electoral Victory of Hamas – reasons and consequences

  • Autor: Pavol Struhár, 07.03.2006

The election to the Legislative Council (Palestinian parliament) took place on January 15, which resulted in a supposedly surprising outcome – in a victory of the Change and Reform Party, which is in fact a political party representing the Hamas radical movement. The latter, together with its four cooperating independent MPs, won 80 seats out of 132 in the legislature of Palestinian National Authority…
