Luigi Scazzieri and Giuseppe Spatafora's Commentary, 'Assessing the damage: What the Iran war really means for Europe’s defence', was highlighted in a Deutsche Welle article (in Croatian). The article highlights how the conflict in the Middle East and growing tensions in the Indo-Pacific are prompting Washington to prioritise redirecting resources to those theatres and replenishing its own arsenals, rather than meeting the defence needs of European allies and Ukraine. "These political, technical, and economic pressures will deepen Europe's window of vulnerability," wrote the authors.
