US Interest in the Middle East

In terms of top-down regional stability, the (higher) Bush administration dispatched thousands of American soldiers to Saudi Arabia, which was easily conquered by Iraq during the Second Gulf War (1991) It seems to be. President George HW Bush decides to consider Saddam Hussein's invasion as a threat to international and regional stability and compel it. However, the intervention of the United States is not without the effect of instability. U.S. Army stationed in Saudi Arabia confronted Islamic radicals and ended the prolonged war between the political parties in the 1980s.

Threats are rising in more parts of the world as this country has proven to be vulnerable.The military strategy based on the new reality in North Africa There is the possibility of exacerbating rather than improving the power of political change.To accept it is not comprehensive of military aid to comprehensive and non-comprehensive of allies in the home and in the region in the Middle East and North Africa It includes excessive US and Western policies that ties sectarian and non-repressive policies.

The Middle East is confusing, and now the interests of the United States are constantly changing. So while you may hear it in the campaign, future governments may follow President Obama 's way and be alert for more intervention. The US's most frequently cited interest is petroleum, and in the past oil price hikes have hurt the US economy. According to the US Department of Energy Information, the Middle East accounts for 30% of the world market, but in countries mainly in Saudi Arabia there is still room. However, despite this central role, the stability of foreign oil-producing countries has not been as important for the United States as in the past (although still a real benefit yet).

Without the Soviet threats in the Middle East and the challenges of other competing countries, the United States has the opportunity to pay greater attention to the central interests in the Middle East, peace and oil. Mr. Richard Belt, Director General of Political Military Bureau of the State Council of the Reagan Administration, expressed a major concern of the country in the Middle East at a subcommittee meeting on March 23, 1987. And we will get Gulf oil at a reasonable price "(Wells, 7). The dependence of the United States on oil imports in the Middle East is the reason to keep peace in this area.
