Analysis: Escalating conflicts and geopolitical shifts had a profound impact on the region last year. What trends could define the Middle East in 2024?

In the mid-1980s, during the long war between Iran and Iraq, students at Tehran’s Jewish high schools would watch their friends suddenly disappear, and then reappear six months later in Europe, the U.S., or Israel.

After all, the Islamic Republic has been committed to the Palestinian cause since 1979. But what can the world expect from Tehran in the event that a peace process follows this latest round of war, most likely to be led by the U.S. and the Arab states? For sure, Iran will have a hard choice to make.
