Summary/Abstract: The treatment of the current American president, Donald Trump, towards the Middle East is a reflection of his personal attitude towards that region. Despite the semblance of formalized strategic goals, Trump has reduced U.S. policy toward the Middle East to ad hoc reactions. Trump's strategic foreign policy goals relate to three key points, namely: victory in the rivalry with China, intimidation and dissolution of „enemy Iran“ and restraint of Russia. All three goals are interconnected and conditioned, and this is seen through the strategy that Trump is implementing; achieve one of the three goals to make it easier to achieve the other two.
