The Middle East has been a culturally and geostrategically fascinating and complex region for decades. The importance of this region for global politics in the 21st century will in all likelihood continue to grow.
On Wednesday, April 24, Dr. Mayssoun Zein Al Din, Director of the Academy of International Affairs NRW, the German writer with Iranian roots Navid Kermani and the Minister for Federal and European Affairs, International Affairs and Media of the State of North Rhine-Westphalia and Head of the State Chancellery Nathanael Liminski spoke to an audience of around 70 interested listeners about the Middle East in a changing world order. Under the direction of Prof. Dr. Angelika Nußberger, Director of the Academy for European Human Rights Protection at the University of Cologne, the discussion focused on this region, which has been both culturally and geostrategically fascinating and complex for decades. On the one hand, the focus was on the role of Iran and its influence in the region. The role of the Arab world in the future world order of the 21st century was also discussed at length.
