Three months after the outbreak of war, Tehran is facing economic strain and continued challenges to its domestic stability, all the while having to recalibrate its regional posture and international strategy in light of evolving conflict dynamics and shifting geopolitical alignments.
This panel examines how Iran’s leadership is navigating wartime governance, elite dynamics and public sentiment at home, while recalibrating its regional strategy and engagement with both allies and adversaries. It will further assess how these domestic and external pressures are shaping Tehran’s deterrence calculus and diplomatic positioning in an increasingly fluid regional and international environment.
