Keeping up with environment and climate news from the Middle East

AGP Executive Report

Last update: 3 hours ago

Ceasefire diplomacy under pressure: Iran’s President Masoud Pezeshkian told Iraq’s PM-designate Ali al-Zaidi that Tehran is ready to prove the peaceful nature of its nuclear program and says its latest proposal—sent via Pakistan—contains “reasonable” demands for the wider region, while the US keeps calling Iran’s response “unacceptable,” as sporadic Strait of Hormuz clashes continue to rattle shipping and energy flows. Renewables momentum: Iraq’s Shams Basra solar project has started operations with 250 MW (with 500 MW due in July and 1,000 MW planned), despite equipment delays linked to Hormuz-related maritime disruptions. EU sanctions move: EU foreign ministers agreed to sanction Hamas leaders and Israeli settler figures, stopping short of broader economic measures against Israel. Local climate adaptation: Egypt is pushing wheat self-sufficiency to 70% by 2030, using EU-backed mechanisation to cut harvest losses. Health tech tie-ups: Saudi and UAE-linked deals are expanding South Korean AI medical monitoring and ECG device distribution across the Gulf.
