No country in the world can live in isolation from the rest of the rest of the world. Relations between countries are very similar to the relations between members of human society. The more an individual enjoys good relations with others, the better his chances of stability and success are than others. Countries have relations of friendship, partnership, or alliance with other countries, and there are relations that naturally impose themselves, such as neighborhood relations or historical relations, which are usually based on deep geopolitical foundations, which impose a kind of relations between countries dictated by common interests and mutual visions.
The relations between countries and the great powers have always taken different forms and forms. Some of the great powers have deep relations with their allies that are difficult to abandon. They are always supportive and supportive of them in all situations and during all the events that they go through, while some allies are characterized by opportunism, as they are countries without friends in the true sense of the word. They ally themselves with some countries during specific periods of time and through specific situations to serve specific goals or interests that concern those forces at some stages of time only. There is a real benefit expected from forming strong alliances with it in the long or even the short term.
There are many volatile regions in the world, not just the Middle East, and volatile regions usually need reliable and balanced interventions to calm the situation in them, and these interventions must be credible and far from bias and take into account the sensitivity of the relationship between the parties to the conflict, because randomness and confusion in dealing with any A conflict may cause it to break out instead of calming it down. It is noted that the flaming conflict regions in the world, such as the Middle East region, are characterized as areas of influence for many conflicting powers, which necessitates that the settlement between the different powers be credible, away from bias and mixing cards, which necessarily requires that The mediator is acceptable to all parties.
With a somewhat in-depth look at the nature of relations between the United States and countries belonging to hot conflict areas, we find that the United States usually plays the role of an ally that is difficult to rely on. And the implicit contradiction, which leaves its allies in bewilderment and raises many question marks about the solidity of its position.
It is certain that the United States is a huge military and economic power that the majority of countries in the world seek to court and form good relations with. Did she possess firm principles that she applied to everyone and during all situations with sufficient impartiality and fairness, or did she change color and change her positions according to her own interests and according to the general mood of the American voter?
Is the United States really keen on spreading peace throughout the world as a superpower that is supposed to seek to impose international peace and stability, and does the generous assistance provided by the American administrations to some countries and not others reflect their sincere desire to spread peace or assistance, or does it provide such assistance to secure a foothold for it? It provided in a geographic area what is of fundamental importance to it in a specific period of time, and quickly withdraws its aid from it without prior consideration and suddenly after achieving its goal, leaving it in the midst of conflicts and confusions, as it did in Afghanistan, for example.
There is another category of countries that the United States is keen to provide military aid to by selling them a huge amount of weapons and military equipment sufficient to operate their military manufacturing institutions and prevent them from collapsing, but while keeping the secrets of its operation in order to ensure the state’s loyalty to it and its inability to break free from the captivity of its military attachment to it. But in the event that the military arsenal of one of those countries has grown and hidden signs of its desire to stop buying more weapons that have overcrowded its military stores appear, then there is nothing wrong with fabricating a conflict here or there to consume some of these weapons and take some innocent lives in order to restore the artery of purchase. Military weapons to influx again.
It is certain that all positions have proven – and are still proving – that the United States is an ally that cannot be trusted or relied upon, and the reality confirms that these positions of the United States revealed – on the other hand – the existence of other emerging global powers that are not good at wearing fake masks such as China, honest In its mediation and steadfast position, its vision is clear and its goals are legitimate, and it is possible to build deep and continuous alliances with it in the long term, and most importantly, it depends in its relations with others on the mutual interests of both parties and does not depend on achieving the interest of only one party all the time, even if the United States did not realize the change The reality around it and read history well to realize that every force has an end, and if visions are not renewed and relations develop to serve all common interests, it will find itself in a continuous decline, perhaps we have already begun to notice its first stages during the current period of time.
