The Middle East is navigating a complex post-Iran war landscape shaped by three distinct but overlapping strategic tracks. The United States is pushing an agenda centered on expanding the Abraham Accords, integrating Israel, and containing Iran through security commitments and sanctions. Concurrently, Saudi Arabia, Egypt, Turkey, and Pakistan are pursuing a path of regional autonomy, while China supports a de-escalation track focused on Saudi-Iranian rapprochement. Despite differing visions on Iran's role, Israel's normalization, and the centrality of Palestine, all three tracks share common goals of preventing wider conflict, ensuring maritime security, and protecting energy markets.
