  • The Trump Foreign Policy Legacy in the Middle East
    THE TRUMP FOREIGN POLICY LEGACY IN THE MIDDLE EAST In his foreign policy, President Trump followed new approaches and shaped the international stage in ways that will be hard for the Biden administration to reverse. These approaches, nowhere more apparent than in the Middle East, include, first, focus on near peer competition, in the Middle East, that included containing Russia, Iran, and Islamic violent extremists such as al-Qaida and particularly Daesh or ISIS. The second is reliance upon partners and allies. The Trump administration succeeded by its standards using the above approaches: Iran’s regional advance was contested and to some degree constrained, Teheran is under far greater economic pressure and faced with a regional coalition encouraged by the Abraham Accords. The administration had moved most of the region beyond the endless Palestinian issue as the lodestone of regional diplomacy, destroyed the ISIS territorial state, and with help from Turkey contained Russian advances. With the exception of the Iranian nuclear file, this looks like success. The issue now is whether the Biden administration can build on this success or revert to Obama policies now obsolete. James Franklin Jeffrey* TPQ Winter 2020/21 * Ambassador James Franklin Jeffrey is Chair of the Middle East Program at the Wilson Center, Washington, D.C. Some of the arguments in this article have appeared in the author’s Foreign Affairs piece, “Biden Doesn’t Need a New Middle East Policy.” 11 VOLUME 19 NUMBER 4 JAMES FRANKLIN JEFFREY ith the departure of President Trump on 20 January 2021, Americans, whether supporters or opponents of Trump, can breathe a sigh of re- lief that four years of non-stop drama and challenges to conventional W wisdom are over, at least until Donald Trump can find another pulpit to boom out to the country.

  • Hearing, House Committee on Foreign Affairs, October 11 2017
    HEARING, HOUSE COMMITTEE ON FOREIGN AFFAIRS, OCTOBER 11 2017 CONFRONTING THE FULL RANGE OF IRANIAN THREATS WRITTEN TESTIMONY SUBMITTED TO THE COMMITTEE AMBASSADOR JAMES FRANKLIN JEFFREY THE WASHINGTON INSTITUTE FOR NEAR EAST POLICY SUMMARY The greatest danger facing the U.S. and its allies in the Middle East today is Iran, allied with various surrogate forces and to some degree Russia. The U.S. as yet does not have a comprehensive policy to confront Iran. Any such policy cannot hold the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA) nuclear Agreement with Iran sacrosanct. Options concerning that agreement must be considered but as part of a larger strategy. Focusing only on the JCPOA to the exclusion of Iran’s destabilizing actions through the Middle East would be a fundamental mistake. To deal with those actions, the first priority is the Levant, from Iran to Lebanon. The U.S. must convince the international community, the Russians, and indirectly Iran, that the internal situation in both Iraq and, especially, Syria, and the presence of foreign forces there including Iranian, Iranian surrogate, and Russian, is a major security concern for the U.S and an existential threat to our allies and partners beginning with Israel, Turkey, Jordan and the GCC states. The stakes here are high: if America does not stop the Iranians on this front, they will soon emerge with their allies as the dominant force in the region.
