Shifting Boundaries of
the EU’s Foreign and Security Policy
https://www.swp-berlin.org//en/publication/shifting-boundaries-of-the-eus-foreign-and-security-policy/

What's Next: Iran's Oil
Field Attacks

oil facilities have escalated tensions between Saudi Arabia and Iran, and

Mike Pompeo will sit down with Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman,
while Iranian President Hassan Rouhani plans to attend the United
Nations General Assembly in New York—leaving open a broad range of
possible responses and repercussions.
