Moji Kheyrian, Founder & Managing Director of the Center for Geopolitics & Security in Realism Studies (CGSRS) based in London, UK participates in Risk Roundup to discuss The Middle East Geopolitical Puzzle and Risks to Global Security. The Middle East Geopolitical Puzzle and Risks to Global Security Today, the Middle East is in chaos. The growing disorder in the resource-rich region brings critical security risks to each and every nation: its government, industries, organizations, academia, and individuals (NGIOA-I) in cyberspace-geospace and space (CGS). While the Middle East has had a rich past, over the years it has declined and currently is going through great turbulence and is likely facing an uncertain future. How has this region that was once so rich in its civilization, religion, science, progress, development, and which has been historically an interconnection of people, trade, ideas, and innovation, completely lost its way? Does it have anything to do with its natural resources? Or is it the region’s governance framework: its ecosystem and effectiveness? The complex challenges brought on by the growing turbulence in the Middle East necessitates an understanding and evaluation of the geopolitics of natural resources and their role in global security. There is a widespread belief that the battle for natural resources has left a lasting and, more often than not, earth-shattering impact on Middle East nations and their associated politics, stakeholders, people, environments, resources, and economies. In addition, the broken spirit of people: its governance model and systems that curtail innovations and lack of desire to compete constructively on a global stage are becoming a cause of concern. Amidst this dark scenario, the Middle East Nuclear Race is already underway. While the Global Community works towards constraining the Middle East’s nuclear ambitions, the question is will they be able to? So, where does the Middle East go from here? Time is now to talk about the Middle East Geopolitical puzzle and Risks to Global Security.
