Persian Culture

Hallo Freunde der deutschen Sprache, wir laden alle, die gern ihr Deutsch üben wollen und in Brüssel geblieben sind, zum nächsten Treffen ein! Falls Ihr angemeldet seid, aber nicht kommen könnt, wären wir dankbar für Eure Abmeldung (WhatsApp - Mike: +32 475 60 88 68). Wir freuen uns auf den Austausch mit Euch!

**This week’s discussion looks at Iran without tropes, slogans, or predictable moral positioning.** **Iran** today is at a geopolitical inflection point — facing deep economic strain, widespread domestic unrest, stalled diplomacy with the United States, a significant regional role, and renewed power alignments with Russia and China. We are not here to repeat talking points, defend geopolitical orthodoxies, or feel morally validated. **We are here to understand power, interests, history, law, incentives, and consequences as they actually are — not as they are marketed.** **Topics We Will Examine** 1. **Sanctions, Economy, and Domestic Pressure** Why continued sanctions have shaped Iran’s internal politics and economic crisis, how inflation and public dissatisfaction interact with state legitimacy, and what domestic pressures mean for strategic posture. 2. **Nuclear Negotiations and Strategic Posture** What the current talks reveal about incentives on both sides, where they are stuck, and how nuclear policy functions as leverage rather than merely a weapons issue. 3. **Regional Security and Proxy Strategy** Iran’s role in Lebanon, Syria, Iraq, Yemen and its deterrence strategy; how regional proxies fit into Tehran’s broader objectives and how Western, Gulf, and Israeli policies interact with these dynamics. 4. **Great Power Dynamics: Russia, China, and the West** How Iran’s strategic ties with Russia and China alter balance-of-power calculations in West Asia, and how Europe and the U.S. are adjusting policy in response. 5. **Geopolitical Signals vs Reality** U.S. military posture in the Gulf, Iranian military exercises near chokepoints like the Strait of Hormuz, and what these movements signal about escalation risks versus diplomatic incentives. **What Makes This Discussion Different** – We focus on **sovereignty, incentives, and strategic consequence** — not left-right moral theater – We prioritize **nuance over noise** and **context over tribal narratives** – We welcome participants with lived experience and language strengths (including Farsi) – We challenge received wisdom whether it comes from Western media groupthink or simplistic anti-West tropes *This is not pro-Iran or anti-Iran. This is about understanding **why actors behave as they do and how global order is shaped in practice**.* **Boundaries** Speak to ideas, history, strategy, and law — not personalities or identity. Critique systems, not individuals. Expect strong disagreement; intellectual laziness will be called out. Languages: English and French by default. Farsi, Dutch, Spanish, Arabic and Italian are supported. **Location & RSVP** Ixelles, public bar; exact venue shared with confirmed attendees via WhatsApp: https://chat.whatsapp.com/LX7UkWGZ3UdLQWLBvNdezN Accountability and rigorous discussion are the point — not performance or talking points.

Welcome, everyone, to a delectable foodie meetup where you'll embark on a journey to master the art of crafting authentic Indian dishes, tailored to your dietary preferences—be it **vegetarian, vegan, or gluten-free.** Immerse yourself in the rich aroma of Indian herbs as we guide you through these culinary adventures. Our cooking workshops promise to transport your taste buds across India's diverse regions—North, East, West, and South—bringing to your kitchen the vibrant flavours that define each corner of our country. No longer will you need to venture out to savour the exquisite tastes of India; now, you can recreate them in the comfort of your own home. As the age-old Indian proverb attests, "The finest Indian food is crafted within one's own kitchen." While patience is a virtue in the culinary world, fear not, for patience is precisely what we'll impart here. Over the course of 2.5 hours, you'll gain mastery over a variety of Indian culinary delights. And to conclude, you'll have the delightful opportunity to share your creations with your loved ones, taking the essence of India's culinary heritage beyond our meetup. Join us for an unforgettable experience where you'll not only learn to cook but also unravel the secrets of Indian cuisine. Your culinary journey starts here! **Let's Embrace Eco-Friendliness** In our commitment to the environment, we have a small favor to ask. While we do offer takeaway containers for your culinary creations, we also invite you to contribute to our sustainability efforts. If you're able, consider bringing along your own 200-250 ml container for the takeaway portion. By doing so, we can collectively take a step towards reducing plastic usage and minimizing our ecological footprint. **FAQ:** * **What does this workshop covers?** At our culinary gatherings, this workshop is designed as a complete meal experience. It features one main dish accompanied by either Indian Chai (tea), bread, rice, or chutney. * **What's on the Menu?** The excitement lies in the surprise! We reveal the dish you'll be cooking 24 hours before the scheduled workshop. This allows us to take note of any food allergies or preferences you might have, ensuring a personalised and memorable experience. Our commitment to variety means we'll never repeat a dish for our loyal participants. * **What to Bring?** All you need to bring is your enthusiasm! Your presence is what truly counts and adds flavour to the workshop. * **How to make the Payment?** Our approach to payment is rooted in building relationships. We value your experience and trust. At the heart of our ethos is your satisfaction, and we're delighted to offer you these payment choices after each workshop. You have three convenient options for making your payment: * Bancontact (QR Code Scan) * Bank Transfer * Cash **Parking:** * Don't worry, it's free parking on the street. **Price Per Person:** * **Single Workshop - € 28** * **6 workshops (\~9 % discount): € 153** (Effective **€ 25,5 per workshop**) - **Valid for 4 months** * **12 workshops (\~20 % discount): € 269** (Effective **€ 22,5 per workshop**) - **Valid for 8 months** **Follow/Visit us:** * [Sanjha Rasoi Website](https://www.sanjharasoi.com/) * [Facebook](https://www.facebook.com/sanjharasoi/) * [Instagram](https://www.instagram.com/sanjharasoi/) (hashtag: #sanjharasoi) * [YouTube](https://www.youtube.com/@sanjharasoi) * [LinkedIn](https://www.linkedin.com/in/sanjharasoi/) * [Google Search](https://www.google.com/search?q=sanjha+rasoi) Please do like or comment once you have experienced our services. **Terms and Conditions:** We provide full professional guidance/assistance to help you prepare the food.

Given the current state of affairs, one can wonder which step world leaders will take next, and which means they will use to do so. Technological and scientific progress can be in part attributed to the military, as can historical changes. Civilisations evolve, but having an army remains a constant. Is it a necessary evil ? Can we do without it ? If not, why not ? Tonight, we will be discussing the societal role of the military. Please join us with some humour, some paper and a pen. Looking forward to seeing you all.

Ciao a tutti! Ci ritroviamo ogni venerdì dalle 18:00 per un bicchiere (si può anche mangiare) da Poppy's Bar, che si trova a 2 minuti di camminata da Parvis St Gilles. Un tavolo per 20 persone è riservato sotto il nome di Salvatore. Dunque, se non ci sono o se sarò in ritardo, potrete chiedere al barista. È un incontro informale, perché non è un evento strutturato, ma piuttosto un gruppo di persone che si riuniscono per parlare e praticare l'italiano. Anche i nativi italiani sono benvenuti :) Tutto ciò che serve è un sorriso — e puoi anche portare un amico! **Importante:** * È obbligatorio essere iscritti all’evento su Meetup per partecipare.

Celebrate the arrival of spring with a delicate and inspiring watercolour session dedicated to tulips, the timeless symbol of renewal, hope, and gentle beauty. On the first day of March, when nature begins to awaken, join us to explore the softness, transparency, and fluidity of watercolour through the elegant shapes and vibrant colours of these beloved flowers. During this activity, participants will create light, expressive tulip compositions, focusing on colour blending, brush control, and capturing the freshness of petals and stems. This workshop is suitable for both beginners and those with some experience, offering guidance, creative freedom, and a relaxing atmosphere. Take this moment to slow down, welcome the new season, and express the spirit of spring through art. By the end of the session, you will leave with your own unique tulip painting — a personal celebration of new beginnings. All materials are provided. The activity is free of charge, as sharing is the hope of humanity.

Join us as we get together to see SIRAT, an Oscar-nominated Best International Film from Spain that follows a father, accompanied by his son, goes looking for his missing daughter in North Africa. Here’s a description, trailer and our plan for this event: DESCRIPTION: A father, accompanied by his son arrive at a rave deep in the mountains of southern Morocco while searching for his daughter who vanished months ago at one of these endless, sleepless parties. As their search continues, the journey forces them to confront their own limits. The film is directed by Oliver Laxe and stars Sergi Lopez, Bruno Nunez Arjona and Richard Bellamy. TRAILER: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ww-IXHXvS70 BUZZ & ACCLAIM: SIRAT has already won numerous awards, including 4 at the 2025 Cannes Film Festival, along with the Chicago, Montclair and Toronto International Film Festivals! It also earned a whopping 11 nominations at the 40th Goya Awards, including Best Film and Director, and was nominated for Best International Feature Film and Best Sound at this year’s Academy Awards. The film is earning a stellar 92% positive rating on Rotten Tomatoes which calls it “an unforgettable exercise in tension” and “a brutal reminder that the journey can be more important than the destination.” PLAN: We’ll plan for a 7pm-ish showing and will confirm/announce details as the date gets closer. Once showtime is confirmed, advance purchase (via GFC website preferred) is advised! Once you have your ticket, please list your seat number in the Comments section of this event. PARKING: Close, convenient parking is available in the nearby garage (located between 9th and 11th, just off High St).
