An error occurred while processing the template.
The following has evaluated to null or missing:
==> data.meta [in template "252001#252047#252845" at line 459, column 10]
----
Tip: It's the step after the last dot that caused this error, not those before it.
----
Tip: If the failing expression is known to legally refer to something that's sometimes null or missing, either specify a default value like myOptionalVar!myDefault, or use <#if myOptionalVar??>when-present<#else>when-missing</#if>. (These only cover the last step of the expression; to cover the whole expression, use parenthesis: (myOptionalVar.foo)!myDefault, (myOptionalVar.foo)??

The KAS Regional Program Political Dialogue South Mediterranean has launched the Mediterranean Advisory Group (MAG) as a series of dialogue rounds to contribute to the strategic debate on the ongoing processes in Europe’s Mediterranean neighborhood to help in better coping with the various changes and challenges. MAG is a network of experts and practitioners from both shores of the Mediterranean, which reviews and analyzes developments in the region connected to security, foreign policy and migration. The meetings take place on a bi-annual basis and are held alternately in Europe and in the southern Mediterranean region. The findings and recommendations of MAG are intended to inform decision-makers and are published regularly in the Mediterranean Dialogue Series.

 


 

US Middle East Policy after the Presidential Elections

MAG-Treffen 11/2020

Im Hinblick auf die US-Präsidentschaftswahlen hat die Mediterranean Advisory Group der KAS PolDiMed die Auswirkungen auf den Nahen Osten und Nordafrika kritisch diskutiert und dank der Senario-Workshops mögliche Entwicklungen für die Zukunft erörtert. Die verschiedenen Experten konnten feststellen, dass die ersten Monate der neuen Biden-Regierung vor allem mit der US-Innenpolitik beschäftigt sein werden und dass es großer Anstrengungen bedarf, einige Entscheidungen der Trump-Politik rückgängig zu machen. Der Grundtenor war jedoch, dass die USA nach wie vor den Wunsch haben, sich mehr und mehr aus der Region zurückzuziehen.

 


 

Game Changers in the Mediterranean

MAG Meeting 09/2020

The Mediterranean Advisory Group of KAS PolDiMed took place for the first time in a digital format where the participants discussed the most important developments in the Mediterranean region in 2020. Not only the developments in Libya were the focus of the discussion, but also the normalization of the relations of some states with Israel as well as the further geopolitical developments in the Eastern Mediterranean were critically discussed by the different experts.

 


 

Mapping Middle Eastern Alliances

MAG Meeting 10/2019

The workshop organized by the Regional Program South Mediterranean of Konrad-Adenauer-Stiftung in cooperation with the Casa Árabe, took a closer look at old and new patterns of Middle Eastern alliances. It assessed the major changes in regional cooperation trends both among states and between states and non-state actors. It further identified clusters of new alliance paradigms, and discussed the impact that the combination of these new patterns may have on the future of the region’s geopolitics and security.
