Bioenergi spelar en viktig roll i omställningen till ett fossilfritt samhälle. Men den ”outnyttjade” jordbruksmark, så kallad marginalmark, som är lämplig för att odla bioenergi på i södra Sverige finns i praktiken inte, visar en ny studie från Lunds universitet. Marken är till stor del redan upptagen av exempelvis hästhållning. – Vår studie visar att potentialen för bioenergiproduktion på margina

This CMES Regional Outlook (2026:1) by Hebatalla Taha and Dina Tawfik examines Iran’s nuclear posture beyond assumptions of weaponisation, highlighting its pursuit of nuclear latency and the implications for diplomacy and regional dynamics. There is a tendency to assume that Iran wants ‘the bomb’. This claim has been repeated – in the press and in some policy circles – with little nuance. However,
