The future of Iranian power in the Middle East, LIVE STREAM

Iran is at an inflection point in its foreign and security policies. For the first time since the 1979 Islamic Revolution, Tehran deployed overt conventional forces to prop up Syrian President Bashar alAssad. This is but one example of Tehrans new thinking as it prepares to majorly shift its strategic posture, taking advantage of a changing Middle East and billions of dollars in new resources after the nuclear deal. AEI Resident Fellow Matthew McInnis new monograph, The Future of Irans Security Policy, provides policymakers with an analytical tool kit to better manage conflict with Tehran and understand and combat the Islamic Republics destabilizing agenda in the Middle East. Join AEI as Lt. Gen. Thomas Trask and retired Vice Adm. Mark Fox mark the monographs release with a discussion on the future of Iranian power in the Middle East, the challenge it poses to the US, and how Washington can respond.
