註釋
This Briefing Paper highlights that the UK's "return east of Suez" is more evolutionary than revolutionary and only partially related to the U.S. pivot towards the Pacific. Stansfield and Kelly also suggest the UK is giving renewed emphasis to its position in the Gulf in order to maintain the special relationship with the US as well as engagement with the defense task in hand, namely deterring Iran. This paper offers a first analysis of what could be one of the most important British defense reorientations since the end of the Cold War.
