Is the US Misjudging the Middle East’s Power Shifts? Vali Nasr's View

“Pivot to Asia.” It was the catchphrase floating around Washington DC’s foreign policy circles in 2009 when President Obama first took office. And yet twelve years later, the Middle East continues to consume the attention of the United States’ military and diplomatic efforts. Now President Biden is determined to change that, and to turn Washington’s attention to Asia once and for all as he moves to confront a growing China. But according to Johns Hopkins University Middle East Scholar Vali Nasr, President Biden’s approach to the Middle East will have to adapt to the once-in-a-generation power grab occurring between Iran, Israel, and Turkey while Arab nations in the region increasingly lose influence.
