Alex Younger: Iran Has the “Upper Hand” in the War
Sir Alex Younger spent 30 years at MI6, Britain’s foreign intelligence service, with six of those as its boss. He joins the Economist’s defence editor, Shashank Joshi, to analyse the current state of the conflict, the health of Iran’s regime and what could happen next.
Sir Alex Younger led MI6 through one of the most consequential periods in modern security, bringing nearly 30 years of intelligence experience to his role as “C.” From operational deployments overseas to advising the Prime Minister at the highest levels of government, his career was defined by decisions made under real pressure and real consequence. His perspective is shaped not by theory, but by lived experience at the center of geopolitical tension and technological transformation. Audiences gain insight into leadership, judgment, and responsibility when the stakes are highest. Contact WWSG to learn more.
