We tackle the provocative question: Has Israel lost its power and strategic initiative to rising regional heavyweights? We analyze how the landscape has changed since October 7th, examining the surging diplomatic and economic influence of Saudi Arabia, the assertive, independent foreign policy of Turkey under Erdogan, and the indispensable mediation role played by Qatar.Join us as we explore whether the momentum of the Abraham Accords has stalled and if a new power balance—led by Riyadh, Ankara, and Doha, is redefining the region's future at Israel's expense.This episode includes AI-generated content.
