The study seeks to provide an overarching understanding to the US objectives and
policies in the Gulf region at three intersecting levels; strategic interests, regional
security and political reform. This study takes United States interactions with Arabia, as
a case study, during the period 2001-2018 under the administrations of G.W. Bush,
Barack Obama and Donald Trump. Additionally, the study attempts to generate greater
understanding of the dynamics that motivating American international politics and
subsequent policies toward the Arab gulf countries through examining the interactions
between both systematic and domestic factors. Noticeably, US entrenched vital enduring
interests with the Arab Gulf States rested, for approximately seventy years, on protecting
oil flow from the region into international economy without interruption, selling arms to
the Gulf Arabs and maintaining gulf regional security against any real or potential
threats. Therefore, the administrations of Bush, Obama, and Trump were not different
from their predecessors in their strategy of preserving gulf security through forward
military presence in the region. Hence, the author employs the neorealist theory to
understand US interactions with the Gulf countries. Remarkably, despite some scholar's
arguments that envisaged the US policies under G.W. Bush and Donald Trump as
departed drastically from US conventional policy, the study argues and concludes that
the US actual policy towards Arabia reflects a traditional policy of maintaining mutual
interests
