Anil Trigunayat, Former India Ambassador to Jordan Libya & Malta discussed the uncertain political climate following Ayatollah Ali Khamenei's death, stating that de-escalation is unlikely due to ongoing attacks and the complexities of regime change. He also mentioned the possibility of spillover violence in Iraq and Syria, as well as the potential for increased tensions if Gulf countries become involved. Trigunayat believed that the situation will remain complicated unless the world intervenes and the US sees the senselessness of the conflict.
