Main Thesis : Characteristics of the latest state of the Middle East

  • Since the Trump administration was set, instability of the Middle East is becoming more severe as the US’s policy towards the Middle East based on the principle of pro-Israel and anti-Iran accelerates the arrangement of the power in the region→ The US has refrained from direct intervention to the Middle East as it discovered shale gas and increased cost from the intervention (Withdrawal of the US military from Syria in December 2018, etc.) and seeks to manage the region through Israel and Saudi Arabia.
