Dr Carole Nakhle, CEO of Crystol Energy and President of AccessWIE, chaired the discussion, which focused on the ongoing war in Syria, US withdrawal from Iran nuclear deal, Lebanon’s recent elections, the region’s economic challenges and oil price, among others. The discussion was held under Chatham House rule.
Overall, the view was pessimistic: participants believe that the Middle East is experiencing a breakdown of the existing order and a new order is emerging – one which is likely to look more chaotic.
