Mike talks with Hudson Institute’s Rob Greenway to provide a regional diagnosis of the Middle East. Greenway demonstrates how important American leadership in the region is to building partnerships & managing a mixed bag of local interests. The pair show why the embattled region will remain a centerpiece of American interests & resources whether we like it or not. Even in the midst of a global shift of focus to East Asia, emboldened malign actors can (and will) continue to disrupt the Middle East, a region still very much at the center of the global energy & communication markets. Finally, they address how the U.S. can and should influence the region in a global context.
