Looking Beyond Iran to the Persian Gulf
The security situation around the Persian Gulf is a crisis waiting to happen that should make European policy-makers shiver.

While Germany and Europe have a key role to play on the Iran nuclear file, only contending with it is too limited. Instead, the next German government should overcome its nuclear myopia and develop a coherent and comprehensive approach to the entire region.
