Israel-Iran conflict: Impact on Indo-Pacific Energy Security

YCAPS is delighted to invite Dr. László Csicsmann, senior research fellow at the Hungarian Institute of International Affairs and professor at Budapest Corvinus University, for our next Indo-Pacific Policy Dialogue for a discussion on the Israel-Iran conflict and the implications for energy security. The recent escalation of the long-standing conflict between Israel and Iran, and overall instability in the region, has made uncertainties regarding energy security increasingly important. This session offers an invaluable opportunity for policymakers, scholars, and enthusiasts to gain insights into the current geopolitical implications of the conflict in the Middle East and its potential reverberations in the Indo-Pacific region, Europe and beyond

This YCAPS Indo-Pacific Policy Dialogue is co-hosted with the Hungarian Institute of International Affairs (HIIA).
