ABD Başkanı Barack Obama döneminde ABD dış politikasında Ortadoğu ve özellikle Suriye hakkında yapılan tartışmalar, 1953-1961 senesinde ABD Başkanı olan Dwight Eisenhower döneminde yapılan tartışmaları anımsatmaktadır. Obama’nın birkaç konuşmasında Eisenhower’ın sözlerine de atıfta bulunması, ABD’deki bazı uzman ve gazeteciler tarafından Obama’nın dış politika yaklaşımı açısından Eisenhower’a benzediği yorumlarının yapılmasına neden olmuştur. Bu çalışma, hem Eisenhower hem de Obama dönemlerinde Ortadoğu’da ayaklanma ve devrimlerin olduğu ortak gerçekliğinden hareket ederek, iki başkanın Ortadoğu ve özellikle de Suriye özelindeki yaklaşımlarının kıyaslanmasını hedeflemekte, var olan yorumlara akademik bir boyut kazandırma gayreti taşımaktadır.
The discussions in the U.S. foreign policy during President Barack Obama, in particular on the Middle East and Syria, remind the discussions during the U.S. President Dwight Eisenhower period from 1953 to 1961. The reference to the words of Eisenhower in Obama’s several speeches has also led to some U.S. experts and journalists to make comments that Obama’s approach to foreign policy is similar to Eisenhower. This study, based on the common reality of the rebellion and revolutions in the Middle East during both Eisenhower and Obama periods, aims to compare the approaches of the two presidents in the Middle East and in particular in Syria, and strives to give an academic dimension to existing comments.
The debates held in the US foreign policy on the Middle East and particularly on Syria during the presidency of Barack Obama are reminiscent of the debates held in the period between 1953-1961, when Dwight Eisenhower was the US president. The fact of Obama having referred to Eisenhower in some of his statements led indeed some specialists and journalists in the American political circles to comment on the resemblance of Obama’s foreign policy to Eisenhower’s. This article, which departs from the historical reality that President Eisenhower and President Obama witnessed uprisings and revolutions in the Middle East, aims to compare both Presidents’ approaches to the Middle East in general and to Syria in particular, as well as to provide an academic dimension to the already existing comments on them.
