Ammon News - Eman Safouri, a researcher of international relations and the author of “FRANCE AND JORDAN RELATIONS” has recently published a new research paper under the title of “French foreign policy in the Middle East at the first term of President Macron”.

The research paper has been published on Jordan Journal of Applied Science.

The summary of research paper:

The Middle East is at a key stage in France’s foreign policy. This study examines France’s approach to the Middle East during Macron's first term. The study aims to find out the motives of Macron's policy in the region and how he deals with it. The importance of the study lies in how France maintains a traditional balancing policy with international actors. The hypothesis of the study is that France adopts its traditional and reassuring approach at this point and that France has close relations with Middle Eastern powers, which have assisted the president in achieving his goals. The study raises many questions about how Macron's foreign policy has looked in the Middle East since taking power; France's reassurance policy; France's economic cooperation with the Middle East; and France's president's efforts in the Palestine-Israeli conflict. To achieve this goal, the study methodology used is an analytical and descriptive approach. The study concludes that France usually positions itself as a power and support for countries' stability and conflict resolution, especially under President Macron, through an active role in the region in addition to commercial presence. The results of the study demonstrate that the key to understanding France's Middle East foreign policy is that the world recognizes the region primarily as a focal point for foreign policies of great powers like France. In addition, French trade finds its markets in the Middle East, and it is evident from the common relations that there is a mutual understanding between France and the Middle East at various levels.
