The National Interest just published my latest short opinion piece:

The article draws attention to the fact that the US’s recognition of the growing strategic import of the Indian Ocean is less of a novel phenomenon than one might at first think. It also briefly lays out some striking parallels in-between both Pakistan and Iran’s asymmetric naval strategies. In the face of such shared threats, New Delhi and Washington should seize the opportunity to focus on mitigating A2/AD threats in the Persian Gulf and Arabian Sea, and, in so doing, help favorably shape one of the world’s most dynamic maritime arenas.
