About Our Panels: SIGNAL 2022 - Conference on Israel's China Policy

When it comes to the Middle East, the U.S., China, & Israel have several issues of mutual policy concern on their docket. There are questions of competition, including technology transfer and strategic investment into Israel. Then there are the regional challenges – Ensuring stability in Egypt and Jordan; finding a resolution to the Syria problem; protecting oil and gas shipments traveling through the Persian Gulf; preventing the nuclearization of Iran; and curbing the spread of separatism, extremism, and terrorism.

Could the Middle East become an area where the US and China can cooperate in the face of their differences? What forms would such cooperation take? And, what role could Israel stand to play in facilitating such collaboration?
