Alec Cadzow: Global Britain must be prepared to intervene in the Middle East

The region has been conspicuously absent from our foreign policy discourse, largely attributable to mistrust on intervention caused by the Iraq war.

Garvan Walshe: Conservatives need to choose. Are they with democracy or with the Capitol terrorists?

The main issue is not that the latter’s actions are extreme, but that they’re anti-constitutional.

David Lidington: We have left the EU and there is no turning back. Here’s what our new relationship with Europe should look like.

Above all, we need to focus on the strategic picture. Throughout the world democracy, human rights and the rule of law are under pressure.

Peter Oborne: The remarkable Baroness Cox – loathed by Azerbaijan, loved in Armenia. And back there as war rages.

It is shameful that Britain has never acknowledged the Turkish genocide of more than a million Armenians just over a century ago.

Alistair Burt: Global Britain can also be European Britain

Multilateral political cooperation with the EU, as well as the bilateral relations with its member states, remains in the UK’s best interest.

Tobias Ellwood: The Government has helped to let Iran, a rogue state, off the leash. It’s time to rein it back in.

We should have supported an extension to the conventional arms embargo at the United Nations in August – and must back sanctions.

Garvan Walshe: Strife in the Caucasus. How Armenia and Azerbaijan are pawns in a new great game between Russia and Turkey.

Tensions have been building for the best part of a year, serious skirmishes broke out in June – and America is nowhere to be seen.

Jason Reed: Taiwan, Britain and the UN. It’s time to rethink the One-China Policy.

The Coronavirus coverup, assaults on democracy and the appalling genocide of the Uyghur Muslims mean that the world must distance itself from the CCP.

Stephen Booth: With four months left to get a Brexit deal, state aid is the major stumbling block for the UK and EU.

At the start of the summer there were reasons for optimism about an agreement. However, the mood appears to have turned.

Tom Tugendhat: It’s time for the Government to stand with its allies – and stand up to Iran

To do so would mean more than staying in step with Trump. For no US administration could accept being bound into a UN system without a veto.

James Gurd: So often, views of the Middle East are out of date. As this historic deal between Israel and the UEA shows.

Sunni Arab leaders now recognise that Iran’s aggression represents an existential threat to more than just the Jewish state.

What would President Biden and Vice President Harris mean for the Special Relationship?

From Brexit, to climate change, to the World Trade Organization, how would this administration align with the UK government?

Russians in the bed?

If Putin hoped that Brexit would detach us from our alliances, there’s no evidence of that happening so far, and much to the contrary.

Hugo de Burgh: We owe it to future generations of Brits to work with China

It is our third largest market – we must work with it if we are to help resolve global problems from the environment to nuclear proliferation.

Peter Oborne and Kamal Alam: Why the time has come for a targeted lifting of sanctions on Syria

Those that prevent ordinary Syrians from accessing humanitarian aid and economic opportunities should be ended.
