Description

The Qatar and the Gulf Crisis by Kristian Ulrichsen offers an authoritative study of the ongoing international standoff between Qatar and its neighbours. In 2017, Saudi Arabia, Bahrain, the UAE, and Egypt severed diplomatic ties with Qatar, launching a complex economic blockade that has shown no signs of resolution. The crisis has been marked by intense bitterness and irrationality, with the Saudi government labelling detainees as "traitors" for their alleged links to Qatar. As the 2022 FIFA World Cup draws closer, understanding the Qatari leadership's response to the blockade becomes increasingly important. Ulrichsen provides a balanced analysis of this international standoff, exploring both sides of the conflict and shedding light on the complex geopolitics at play. This book is an essential read for anyone seeking to understand the ongoing crisis in the Gulf region. With its authoritative study and nuanced approach, The Qatar and the Gulf Crisis by Kristian Ulrichsen provides a valuable insight into one of the most pressing international conflicts of our time.
