A Post-American Alliance for the Middle East || Peter Zeihan
Summary
Peter Zeihan analyzes the new defense pact between Saudi Arabia, Turkey, and Pakistan, noting its current limitations due to divergent regional threats like India and Russia. He argues that while the alliance seems impractical now, it makes strategic sense as the US retreats from the Middle East. This shift forces these Sunni nations to integrate economically and militarily to secure energy and safety in a deglobalizing world.
