The Bunker – News without the nonsense

Bunker USA: Biden doubles down for Israel - Julie Norman on what that means


Listen Later

President Joe Biden’s visit to Israel was a clear indication of US support for Netanyahu's war with Hamas – but he also signalled a need for caution in the region. With the possibility of a second Trump presidency on the horizon, is the US’s hands-on approach to the Middle East sustainable? Associate professor of politics and international relations at UCL, Dr. Julie Norman, joins Chris Jones in The Bunker to look at Biden’s visit and the future of conflict in the middle east. 

  • “The Israel Palestine is the epicentre for regional conflicts in the Middle East.” – Dr. Julie Norman
  • “As a statesman, Trump is seen as unpredictable and that’s difficult in times of crisis.” – Dr. Julie Norman
  • “This conflict has reaffirmed the need for stable global leadership.” – Dr. Julie Norman
