For this reason, altho' from accidents and misfortunes not to be averted by human foresight, I make little or nothing from my Estate, I am still willing to increase your wages, and make it worth your while to continue with me. To go on in the improvement of my Estate in the manner heretofore described to you, fulfilling my plans, and keeping my property together, are the principal objects I have in view during these troubles; and firmly believing that they will be accomplished under your management, as far as circumstances and acts of providence will allow, I feel quite easy under disappointments; which I should not do, if my business was in common hands, 38 liable to suspicions. I am, etc. 38. Extract in “Washington's Letter Book, No. 5.” Lund answered (March 18): “By your letter I should suppose you were apprehensive I intended to leave you. -

"Saudiarabiens Säkerhetspolitik"
Saudi Arabia has played a key role in Middle East politics for Bergenwall Samuel The Assertive Kingdom decades, yet often behind the scenes and through the employment of financial means. However, since the eruption of the Arab Spring, Saudi Arabia has moved towards the centre stage of Middle Eastern affairs, while its security policy has become more forceful and inclined towards the use of military power beyond its borders. In fact, Saudi Arabia perceives itself as the leader of the Arab and Islamic world – and acts as if that is the case. Saudi Arabia has become the assertive kingdom. This report sheds light on Saudi Arabia’s security policy developments and priorities by assessing the kingdom’s threat perception, capabilities and strategies. Questions that will affect Saudi Arabia’s future stability and security policy developments are also discussed.
