The working out of the policy of the United States and Great Britain in Arab East in 1958-1960
In the article the author researches the influence of events, which took place in the Middle East in 1958 (a creation of the United Arab Republic, domestic crises in Lebanon and Jordan, a coup d'etat in Iraq) on the policy of the United States and Great Britain in Arab East. On the first glance, these events undermined British policy, based on Anglo-Iraqi strategic partnership and American «Eisenhower's doctrine», aimed to isolate Egypt in the Arab world. The situation in inter-Arabian relations became much more complicated than before Suez crisis of 1956. However, changes, which took place in Arab countries in 1958, just precipitated a process of adjusting of collaboration of the U.S. with leaders of Arab nationalist movement. Great Britain became much more concentrated on defence of its interest in Persian Gulf region.
