Jag bidrog, med perspektiv från Europa, till denna kritiska analys i @utrikesmagasin av USA:s anfall mot Iran i förra helgen.

USA:s bombning av Iran bröt enligt experter mot folkrätten. I Mellanöstern finns risk för kärnvapenspridning och Europa har svårt att hantera frågan.

Ireland has often been seen as immune to the wave of anti-elite political sentiment that has swept Europe in recent years. That might be changing. Lena Karlsson and Hedvig Ördén explain the situation in a new UI Paper, published by the Europe Programme.

Western Balkan countries are keen to join the EU. While they wait, their firms can at least trade with each other - or can they? In a new UI Brief, published by the Europe Programme, @albian_krasniqi (Tech University Dublin) examines WB business sentiment.

The EU intends to spend loads of € on defence. Does that mean we're heading for a "European Defence Union"? No, argues Cornelia Čekal (Central European University), in a new UI Brief, published by the Europe Programme.

Två @UISweden kollegor, inklusive @adea_gafuri från Europaprogrammet, har skrivit insiktsfullt om det bräckliga läget i Bosnien.

Bosnien är i ett akut politiskt dödläge. En ny våldsam konflikt kan inte uteslutas på sikt. Sönderfallet hejas på av Ryssland, Serbien och Ungern.

This essay, by @RoderickParkes, who's an associate researcher at the Europe Programme @UISweden, is an especially thought-provoking take on the EU and geopolitics.
