Brookings experts are following the latest developments in the Middle East and North Africa, including turmoil in Egypt, the resurgence of Al Qaeda, the Israeli-Palestinian peace talks, and Iran under its new presidency. In addition, they offer recommendations on how to address the continuing issues of nuclear proliferation, democratization, security, and economic development. The institution’s work on these issues is carried out primarily by a team of experts in Washington, D.C. and Doha, Qatar with the Saban Center for Middle East Policy and the Brookings Doha Center. Their work is complemented by the research of other experts across Brookings.
