As the West Asia conflict continues to reshape global dynamics, CNN-News18, India’s leading English news channel, steps to the forefront with ‘Fury in the Gulf – War Conclave’ to decode the ongoing crisis.
Under the definitive theme of ‘Conflict, Consequences, and The Future,’ this high-impact conclave is dedicated to cut through the noise and bridge the information gap, countering widespread confusion with rigorous fact-based conversation and expert insights into the region’s shifting geopolitical landscape.
As tensions between Iran and the United States escalate, they are sending ripples across the global order, reshaping geopolitical alignments and triggering economic uncertainty worldwide.
For India, these developments carry significant relevance, with strong energy dependencies on the Gulf, deep-rooted trade relationships and a large Indian diaspora, making any escalation impactful. With strategic ties across the Gulf nations, Iran, Israel and the United States, India must strike a careful balance between its strategic interests, economic priorities and the welfare of its citizens.
The three-hour conclave will be held on Tuesday, April 7, from 4:00 PM to 7:00 PM, featuring six curated sessions, a mix of power-packed one-on-one interviews and high-decibel panel discussions. The conclave will break down the situation, bring together expert perspectives and analyse what it means for India across key areas such as geopolitics, economy, energy and diaspora impact.
The high-impact sessions include ‘Diplomacy in Times of War’ with Shashi Tharoor; ‘ World After the Iran Conflict’ with Ram Madhav, Reuven Azar, the Iranian Deputy Envoy, and representatives from the European Union; and ‘Another Dunkirk?’ featuring K. J. S. Dhillon alongside Jitin Prasada and other ministers.
