US-Russian steps vs Iran await new NSC chief
DEBKAfile was founded by a team of journalists in June 2000 as an independent Internet Web site, providing an intelligence and security news service. February 14, 2017, 2:44 PM (IDT)
Michael Flynn’s resignation as National Security Adviser Monday night, Feb. 13, was a crippling blow to Donald Trump’s foreign policy strategy. As architect and prime mover of the president’s plans for close cooperation with Russian President Vladimir Putin, his exit causes havoc in the Trump administration. But for the Middle East, it is a catastrophe, because a core objective of the US-Russian partnership was to clip Iran’s wings as premier Middle East power conferred by Barack Obama.
Our unique angle on these subjects – and strong intelligence dimension – has earned DEBKAfile a global reputation and a steady readership – which skyrockets in times of crisis.
