Is a new order in the Middle East on its way?
The upcoming visit of US President Joe Biden to the region and the speculations about the consequences of this trip have raised the question of whether we should wait for a new order in the Middle East?
According to IRNA Sunday, Turkey’s Anatolia news agency wrote in an article addressing this issue: The 46th president of the United States, Joe Biden, is about to visit the Middle East in the middle of this month. He will visit Israel and Saudi Arabia and participate in the Gulf Cooperation Council meeting. Fars has been the common travel season of all American presidents, whether democrats or republicans, during their trips to the Middle East, and Biden’s itinerary will be the same.
During this period, the countries of Iraq, Egypt and Jordan have been invited to the meeting of the Persian Gulf Cooperation Council in Riyadh with the presence of Biden, and this topic has created discussions and questions about the possibility of a new regional order with the support of the United States in the Middle East.
Apparently, with this trip, he should take a step back from his election positions, because during the election campaign and after the victory, he had expressed statements and positions against Saudi Arabia and Mohammed bin Salman, the young crown prince of this country.
But concerns about losing the congressional mid-term elections due to high inflation and high oil prices caused by Russia’s war with Ukraine have forced Biden to back off, and international and regional conditions have prompted Washington to play a more active role in the Middle East again. slow
During the time of Trump, the former president of the United States, the so-called “Abraham” agreement was signed between Israel on the one hand and the UAE, Bahrain, Morocco and Sudan on the other hand, and there are hopes for the signing of similar agreements during the presidency of Biden. Israel and the countries of the region want Washington to take a more active role in the region, for example, Israeli media talk about establishing a joint air defense agreement in the Middle East against Iran.
