Tensions Between the U.S.Regional Strategies and Their Modes of Action:Take the Impacts of the Middle East Strategy on the Indo-Pacific Strategy as an Example
In the system of the U.S.global strategy,there exists a complex interaction among the regional strategies.On the basis of reviewing the existing studies,this paper attempts to explore the modes of action of these regional strategies'interaction from the perspective of the tensions between the U.S.regional strategies.For any two U.S.regional strategies,the specific tension between them leads to the formation of a coordination,gain or distraction mode of action,resulting in differentiated impacts on the operation and function of the two.As the U.S.global strategy shifts its focus from the Middle East to the Indo-Pacific,the U.S.Middle East strategy characterized by strategic retrenchment can coordinate with the Indo-Pacific strategy for a long time,and help the latter to operate and play a role in accordance with the design.During this period,the Middle East strategy also bolsters the Indo-Pacific strategy,enabling the latter to save strategic resources and achieve additional objectives.After the outbreak of the new round of Israeli-Palestinian conflict,the U.S.Middle East strategy which emphasizes strategic retrenchment is on the verge of failure,and its tension with the Indo-Pacific strategy is increasing,thus imposing constraints on the latter and introducing heightened resistance and uncertainty into the latter's operation and function.
