The beginning of a new chapter in Egypt-Turkey relations could also pave the way for changes in the wider region.

Five weeks after officially taking office, Joe Biden drew the attention of the daily news consumers through two moves he made in less than a day.
First, an air raid that targeted several locations of the pro-Iranian armed militias located at the Eastern border between Syria and Iraq.
The second was when, at his initiative, the US President had a phone conversation with King Salman bin Abdulaziz Al-Saud.

While we are just a few hours before the final results of the US presidential election between Democratic nominee Joe Biden and Republican nominee Donald Trump, observers can state views on the implications of the election of each of the candidates in the Middle East and which of its countries will be happy and which will be in trouble.

The national identity of Lebanon was created after World War I, when in 1918, the famous British-French agreements – named after their engineers, the Englishman, Mike Sykes and the Frenchman, Francis-Georges Picot – divided the Middle East between France and Great Britain, following the principle 'divide et impera'.

On the 13th of August President Donald Trump announced that, following a personal initiative, managed by the presidential advisor Jared Kushner, there have been negotiations between the Israeli Prime Minister, Benjamin Netanyahu, and the Crown Prince of the United Arab Emirates, Mohammed Bin Zayed, and that they have agreed the normalization of relations between the United Arab Emirates (UAE) and Israel.

The Arab Spring that broke out ten years ago in Tunisia caused significant changes and keeps on affecting one of the hottest areas of the global political geography – the Middle East.

Contrary to some optimist commentators, Donald Trump’s administration has not given up, nor does it intend to give up implementing the initiative to solving the Palestinian dossier that the occupant of the presidential seat in the Oval Office himself labelled as “Deal of the Century”.

Since the beginning of this year, and even earlier, the world was taken over - with its values, frustrations, concerns and, most of all, with the frightening count of those defeated - by the poisoning stench of the killer COVID-19. The tale of this ailing world filled numerous bookshelves, and the obsessive leitmotif was whether “the world after” will ever be the same. Epidemics, which humanity had experienced throughout its long journey to civilization and survival have not been forgotten, nor have the nostalgic ludic moments with their beaches, the joy of exotic places and the customary normality threatened with extinction

The last year’s Middle East political agenda was mainly dominated by the redundant paradigm called the “Deal of the Century”. A promising title for the latest initiative of president Donald Trump who, setting aside the US plans to building the “new” or “great” Middle East (that the former secretary of state Condoleeza Rice launched in 2000), came up with an objective of his own – equally “modest” and complex and difficult – to find a final and long-lasting solution to the Palestinian-Israeli conflict.
