Strategic Posture Review: Egypt (World Politics Review Strategic Posture Reviews) (English Edition) [Kindle-editie] beoordelingen het boek quotes

Egypt has played a central role in Middle East politics and security policy since World War I. The Suez Canal remains critical to the security of the Persian Gulf and its vast energy reserves, as well as to global trade. Egypt also maintains the region's largest and most powerful Arab military. The question remains, however, whether Egypt will continue to be able to play this influential role as other regional powers emerge and domestic problems increasingly buffet the country. This strategic posture review examines Egypt's foreign and defense policies and its strategic priorities.
