Description: And if the outcome of the actual Foreign American policy was an endless
series of confl icts and wars predicated on perceived threats rather than
actual threats? Indeed, a year into his presidency, the security policy of
the U.S., introduced by the previous Republican administration, does not
seem to have undergone fundamental change under the U.S. President
Barack Obama. On the contrary, the incumbent administration seems to
have even adopted policies engineered and applied by its predecessor.
Including the risks it represents. Welcome to the main international issues
of a ten years old post-9/11 world.
Dealing with the relationship between the U.S. and Iran, the sinking in
Afghanistan, the nuclear issue posed by North Korea, the relationship
between United States and Israel, the Pakistan and its nuclear arsenal, the
China’s Foreign policy and its new defense posture, the Start agreements
between the U.S. and Russia, and questioning environmental issues, the
specialist Nasser Zammit examines the whole year 2009 and gives a new
look over the world.
