Leçons stratégiques, économiques et sécuritaires de la guerre entre les États-Unis et l’Iran

July 10, 2026

À la suite des récents développements au Moyen-Orient, le Policy Center for the New South lance une série de trois webinaires consacrée aux conséquences stratégiques, géopolitiques, sécuritaires et économiques du conflit entre les États-Unis et l’Iran.

S’appuyant sur la publication Hormuz and the Invisible Fractures: The Price of a Distant War – Views from the New South, cette série analyse le détroit d’Ormuz à la fois comme un point de passage maritime stratégique essentiel et comme une ligne de fracture révélatrice des mutations de l’ordre mondial. Si le récent accord entre les États-Unis et l’Iran atténue les tensions immédiates, la crise se poursuit et continue d’évoluer, faisant de cette publication un éclairage particulièrement opportun sur un paysage géopolitique dynamique et encore en pleine recomposition.

À travers une approche pluridisciplinaire, ces webinaires examinent les répercussions du conflit sur les pays du Nouveau Sud, les routes commerciales mondiales, la sécurité énergétique et l’évolution de l’ordre international. Ils offrent également un espace de réflexion sur les enseignements stratégiques de long terme qui se dégagent de cette crise.

Cette session analyse les enseignements stratégiques de la confrontation entre les États-Unis et l’Iran, en mettant en lumière les nouvelles formes de dissuasion, de guerre hybride et de compétition régionale. Elle examine également les conséquences économiques et commerciales du conflit, notamment à travers le détroit d’Hormuz. Enfin, le débat porte sur les répercussions sécuritaires au Moyen-Orient, en Afrique et dans le Sahel, ainsi que sur les implications pour la stabilité régionale et internationale.

    في 6 أكتوبر 1973 تلقت السلطات الإسرائيلية تحذيرات عن احتمال اندلاع حرب على حدودها مع الدول العربية. هذا التحذير أكد المعلومات التي تم استلامها قبل بضعة أيام، ولكن أصحاب القرار السياسي والاستخبارات في اسرائيل لم يأخذوا الأمر على محمل الجد. حيث تعرضت إسرائيل لهجوم مفاجئ وعرف جيشها حالة من الهلع. وكانت الكارثة. خمسون عاما بعد ذلك، تقريبًا في نفس اليوم، فوجئت إسرائيل بهجوم جديد. في صباح 7 أكتوبر 2023، عبر مئات الرجال مسلحين الحاجز بين إسرائيل وقطاع غزة، انتشروا في أكثر من 20 مكانًا، قت ...

    On October 6, 1973, the Israeli authorities were warned of the imminent outbreak of war on their borders with the Arab states. This warning confirmed information received a few days previously, which Israeli political decision-makers and iintelligence services had not taken seriously. Israel was taken by surprise and its army panicked. It was a debacle. Fifty years later, almost to the day, Israel was once again taken by surprise. On the morning of October 7, 2023, hundreds of armed ...

    Le 6 octobre 1973, les autorités israéliennes ont été averties de l’éclatement imminent d’une guerre à leurs frontières avec les États arabes. Cet avertissement confirmait les informations reçues quelques jours auparavant, mais que les décideurs politiques et le Renseignement israéliens n’avaient pas pris au sérieux. Israël est pris par surprise et son armée est en panique. C’est la débâcle. Cinquante ans plus tard, quasiment jour pour jour, l’État hébreux est enco ...

    Cette 6ème édition du rapport géopolitique de l’Afrique s’inscrit dans la même ligne éditoriale que ses précédentes. Elle se veut une plateforme où des auteurs et analystes africains racontent l’Afrique géopolitique de 2022 en débordant parfois sur les événements saillants du début de 2023. Ce moment, d’environ une année et demie, ne peut échapper à la guerre en Ukraine comme toile de fond du monde. Même lorsque les auteurs ne s’y réfèrent pas explicitement, cett ...

    Twenty-Four Hours June 23-24, 2023. Over those days, Russia, the sanctioned world power, was not destabilized by the nuclear enemy in Washington, but by one man, who made his wealth serving food to school children and soldiers. A caterer who attempted a revolution. A bald man, who apparently wore wigs during his days off, as the Russian secret police claimed to have discovered when they searched his home in St Petersburg. The photos of the wig-wearing Yevgeny Prigozhin were shown o ...

    “February 24, 2022,” noted Robert Pszczel in « Nato Review”(July 7, 2022),”is likely to engrave itself on the history template of the contemporary world.”Pszczel, a Senior fellow  at the Polanski Foundation, Warsaw, and former Polish diplomat serving as director  of the NATO information office  in Moscow for half a decade, judged Russia’s unprovoked, unjustified invasion of Ukraine is  not only a “manifestation of a huge  security danger that has shatte ...
