| Event Details:
Book Fair in Cairo with Egyptian political unrest actually ran into the Cairo floundered.
Zhong Guangwang Beijing News: In recent days, Egypt emerged a large-scale anti-government protests, the situation remained turbulent, complicated and confusing. Egypt is a key U.S. ally in the Middle East since the outbreak of mass demonstrations in Egypt, the United States has been closely watching the situation in Egypt, continue to make a statement. So, the Egyptian Middle East strategy in the United States occupies a position of what? Political unrest in Egypt gave the United States out of a kind of problem? In this issue, "a South Military Forum" section of them, the National Defense University Strategic Research Institute, Major General Jin Yinan Li Yan received the CCTV interview, for your in-depth analysis.
U.S. response to a dilemma situation in Egypt
Egypt, the United States in the Middle East, an important ally, since the demonstrations in Egypt since the outbreak of large-scale fighting, the U.S. has been closely watched the situation in Egypt, while continuing to publish a statement that Egypt's Middle East strategy in the United States which, occupied by what kind of place?
United States is now caught in a situation in Egypt is a state of conflict, from the U.S. State Department, the Special Envoy, to the United States President Barack Obama is the change in different attitudes, but also saw the contradiction.
Of course, consistent support from the United States color revolutions, regardless of jasmine rose revolution or the revolution, the United States has always been this attitude, and even secretly promoted. Then look at the situation varies in Egypt, Egypt is the most important U.S. ally in the Middle East. In 1973, after the end of the fourth Middle East war, the United States to maintain stability in the Middle East, Egypt is the most important leader, was reached on Egypt's peace treaty with Egypt, has also led to the assassination of former President SADC, it also led to the President of Israel was assassinated. We can see the difficult Middle East peace-keeping, of course, there is this hard behind the scenes, more content, nor is the scope of this comment, because time is limited.
Well, from the point of view, the United States in the Middle East into a very complex and difficult birth of conflicting interests among the one hand, the United States must maintain influence in the Middle East, especially Egypt and Israel. Instigated the other hand, the so-called democratic forces to support the Middle East, freedom, to pursue freedom and human rights. However, the development of the democratic movement in the Middle East to a certain extent, we can see, often beyond the control of the United States, it was most contradictory.
The 1979 Iranian revolution overthrew the pro-US regime, this form of revolution in accordance with this view, there is no doubt the United States should be supported, but Iran was put on a firm, very thorough anti-American road, this is not the United States think of.
Then Egypt will not see a anti-American regime, in particular, appears dominated by the Islamic, which is the largest point of concern. The United States into a major conflict, he is difficult to choose a good position, but the public backlash in Egypt is very large, then who will replace him, it is very difficult issues facing the United States.
U.S. hedge Egyptian security chaos in response to their own interests
So for now, what do you think the United States to adopt a kind of strategy?
Jin Yinan: U.S. strategy is now to take bets on both sides: on the one hand taking into account the political situation in Egypt, on the trouble people have to play a conciliatory role in the performance of the United States still has enormous influence in Egypt and even decisive influence on people's actions to There is a limited support.
Uphold the national interests of the United States is by no means free and equal people around the world, is the core of U.S. interests. Regardless of how the Egyptian people trouble, what the United States weighed, how to achieve the United States under the existing complex to maximize the interests of Egypt. Israel attitude of today's best to remain silent, and sure enough chaos in Israel to Egypt to remain silent, the actual Israel is with good reason, Israel is very worried about the future direction of the Egyptian regime.
The United States did not actually find a good way to deal with the trouble in Egypt, step by step never forget the hedge, the core is to ensure the best interests of the United States in the Middle East, this will not give up.
Some analysts believe that the attitude of the United States to Egypt, a bit like "satirizes those who profess" in the "Lord Ye", the surface values of democratic freedom, but when the situation really changed in Egypt, the Americans afraid of hurting their own interests.
Jin Yinan: people took to the streets, while shouting slogans are the same, but the United States to see their different demands is what the public demands. If people are to overthrow the existing regime demands that the U.S. should do such a trade-off, to overthrow the existing regime is a positive or negative. If the benefit to overthrow the existing regime, then there is no doubt that the U.S. demands that the public is justified and should be supported. If the overthrow of the regime may have an adverse impact, then the support commitments reduced. Can be seen in the choice of values and interests, the interests of the United States must be ranked in priority.
