This memorandum provides a framework for considering US interests and objectives in Southwest Asia, and policy options for the future. It traces the evolution of US policy toward the region and changing assumptions regarding the nature of US interests and the threats posed to them, especially the dicotomy between intraregional and extraregional threats. The author notes the long-standing conflict between the goal of protecting US interests against the worst case external military threat to the region, and the objective of maintaining regional stability and a favorable political climate for the continued flow of oil. Finally, he discusses three options for protecting US interests in the region and indicates the extent to which each enhances or inhibits the achievement of various recognized objectives. (Author).

The focus on the war in Afghanistan has prevented the United States from developing a South Asia strategy rooted in the relative strategic importance of the nations in the region. India, a stable democracy enjoying rapid growth, clearly has the most potential as a strategic partner. Pakistan, as the home of al Qaeda leadership and over 60 nuclear weapons, is the greatest threat to regional stability and growth. Yet Afghanistan absorbs the vast majority of U.S. effort in the region. The United States needs to develop a genuine regional strategy. This paper argues that making the economic growth and social reform essential to the stability of Pakistan a higher priority than the conflict in Afghanistan is a core requirement of such a strategy.

Asia in the 1980s will be extremely important for the U.S. The factors which make it a locale of intensified U.S.-Soviet rivalry include the extension of Soviet naval power to the Western Pacific, the potential of a U.S.-China security cooperation on the theme of "antihegemony," the growing Soviet interests in Southwest Asia and the Persian Gulf area and instability in Indochina.

This memorandum examines the interrationship of the political objectives, security policy, and military strategy as it pertains to achieving US national interests in Southwest Asia. The author reviews the major differences between Force Development Planning and Operational Planning and postulates that a lack of understanding of these differences among policymakers and strategists causes disconnects among objectives, policies, and strategy. He, then, introduces and discusses six strategic guidelines that have the potential to mitigate the adverse strategic effect of disconnects in the strategic process in the context of Southwest Asia. The author concludes that potential policy-strategy disconnects could constrain the United States should military force be needed to secure US national interests in Southwest Asia. (Author).
