NATO Developed New Methods of Cognitive Warfare

BY: Leonid Savin PEJOURNAL - A leading role in Cognitive Warfare direction is played by the Innovation for Defense Excellence and Security (IDEaS) Specialized Center, also known as the Innovation Hub, located in Canada. However, this center is not included in the list of NATO’s official accredited centers of excellence , such as the Center for Cooperative Cyber Defense in Tallinn or the Center for Energy Security in Vilnius. Probably, NATO did not want to draw attention to its work, so it functions “autonomously”. It should be admitted that this concealment approach was successful, since, judging by the news feed, the Center began work…

Sanctions must be neutralized, and the first step in foreign relations should be taken toward neighbors

PEJOURNAL - We have approached Mr. "Rostam Ghasemi" to ask questions to review the various dimensions of his personality, record and plans as someone who considers himself qualified to accept the responsibility of the President of the Islamic Republic of Iran. The details of this conversation are as follows: I think since you have talked less with the media so far, it is better to have a brief introduction of yourself first. In the name of God, Most Gracious, Most Merciful. I have been working for a long time in the field of construction in different parts of Iran as…

Geostrategic scrutiny on the construction of a new energy corridor

BY: Pooya Mirzaei PEJOURNAL - Energy has become a lever of burden and pressure that influence international relations and geopolitics. Thus, energy security has been considered vital and important around the world which brings an emergency construction of a tactical strategic energy corridor or passage as a way to guarantee safety-ness.

Getting East Mediterranean Energy Right

BY: Nikos Tsafos* PEJOURNAL - This was a tumultuous summer in the Eastern Mediterranean. On August 12, there was a collision between a Greek frigate and a Turkish frigate as the two navies circled the Turkish survey vessel Oruc Reis. Military exercises drew in forces from the United States, Russia, and France. The United States, Germany, and NATO each tried to mediate between Greece and Turkey. The Mediterranean members of the European Union held a summit, leading French president Emmanuel Macron to tweet “Pax Mediterranea” (whatever that means). Russia offered to help lower tensions, and Greece announced a massive weapons…

Countries that are reliant on oil face uncertainty as renewable energy gain ground

BY: Paul Cochrane PEJOURNAL - The theory of peak oil, whereby the cost of extraction would exceed how much consumers were willing to pay while demand outstripped supply, was first floated more than 60 years ago.

That didn’t happen - but the spectre of peak oil raised its head again in the mid-2000s, in part pushed by Matthew Simmons’ book Twilight in the Desert: The Coming Saudi Oil Shock and the World Economy. Simmons argued that Saudi Arabia had inflated its colossal oil reserves - a…

Natural Gas Resources and the Effect of Democracy on Resource Sharing

BY: Sibel İleana Okumuş PEJOURNAL - Turkey's recent finding natural gas reserve in Black Sea did not make a big impact because of the course of the economy and the existence of other problems. In contrast, the economic and social problems such as depreciation of Turkish lira and backwardness in terms of human rights are the subjects that being argued. This leads us to search how these resources are distributed in countries with valuable underground resources and how transparently this is done. In this context, we are going to examine the gas reserves of countries and its connection with governence,…
