Current Trump's Middle East security policies are military-directed and the light footprint option seems the best strategy for future U.S. security policy.

Since the eruption of the crisis and its aftermath, it has become clear that this is not the best way to stop the destabilizing policies of other actors in the region.

This time around, Washington serves to ease tensions, as the Trump administration made a $12-billion military deal and decided to hold joint exercises with Qatar.

The only reason behind the Gulf crisis may not be Trump's 'selling security to rich countries' policy. The financial deal between the parties might also have played a big role

SETA Foreign Policy Studies Director Ufuk Ulutaş said that the recent Gulf crisis is an attempt to redesign Middle East politics and it is not about the alleged support of terrorism by Qatar, but rather a result of Qatar following its own terms in regional matters.

Turkey learned much from the Arab Spring process, and especially the Syrian civil war. This learning period was directly reflected in Erdoğan's policies.

Turkey, Saudi Arabia and Qatar could be leading forces for such a strong alliance.

Despite support from several countries, Abdel Fattah el-Sisi is under pressure from within. Increasing security concerns, terror attacks in the Sinai, economic issues and foreign policy problems threaten the future of his regime.

Egypt's warming toward Russia, Iran and Syria, and its ongoing hostility to Turkey, is fatally undermining relations with Saudi Arabia

The resistance of the Turks has proven that there is no power stronger than the civilians of a country. The Unarmed Turkish Forces – namely the people of the country – fought and won against NATO’s second largest army.

Turkey was to fall into the hands of the military junta and become one of the unstable countries in the region.

Turkey’s reaction to Sisi was due to the military coup as well as the bloody and suppressive methods used against opposition groups by him.
