Amid the overwhelming popular enthusiasm and unprecedented media coverage in the Arab world that accompanied the 2008 U.S. presidential elections, the Carnegie Middle East Center provided an open forum for distinguished Arab observers to share their thoughts on future American policies in the Middle East.
Obama’s Middle East Policy: What the Arab World Expects, features the different concerns and agendas of writers from a range of countries, disciplines, and backgrounds, including Morocco, Tunisia, Egypt, Palestine, Lebanon, Jordan, Iraq, the United Arab Emirates, Saudi Arabia, and Yemen.
The writings explore America’s image in the region; the critical security issues facing the Middle East: Iraq, the Israeli–Palestinian conflict, and Iran’s nuclear ambitions; the social significance of Obama’s election; political reform; and Islamist movements.

Milo McBride, Pauline Gerard

When the U.S.-Iran memorandum of understanding was announced, the UK, France, Germany, and Italy declared their readiness to help demine the Strait of Hormuz and lift nuclear sanctions on Tehran. But does Europe need new tools to recover a diplomatic role?
Rym Momtaz, ed.
The Franco-German relationship is on the rocks again. But unlike previous moments of tension, the epochal changes on the world stage require that both step up investment in their bilateral ties.
Rym Momtaz
As geopolitical rivalry weaponizes global supply chains, the EU’s true vulnerability lies in emerging-risk imports. For these goods, suppliers are growing more concentrated, substitution more difficult, and political risk is looming.
