US Strategic Incoherence and the Iran War
Views of the Iran crisis vary from the perspectives of U.S. allies in Asia, Central Asia’s oil exporters, and South Asia’s perpetual foes, India and Pakistan.

Today on The Diplomat’s Asia Geopolitics podcast, hosts Ankit Panda (@nktpnd) and Katie Putz (@LadyPutz) take stock of the current state of affairs, the view of the Iran crisis from the perspectives of U.S. allies in Asia, Central Asia’s oil exporters, and South Asia’s perpetual foes, India and Pakistan.
