What are the factors that have contributed to the current situation in the Middle East?

1. Description of the situation.

Historically, the Middle East has been a powder keg in the world, with wars raging and peoples suffering from wars. The recent political turmoil could exacerbate the deterioration of the situation in the region, making peace elusive. The Arab-Israeli conflict and the Iranian issue are two major historical problems in the Middle East, which have a direct bearing on peace and stability in the Middle East and North Africa.

The Arab-Israeli conflict involves all countries in the Middle East region and is the greatest challenge to stability in the Middle East.

Now that the Middle East has been in turmoil in North Africa for months, the United States has refused to lead a military intervention in Libya and has explicitly refused to send ground troops, partly because it does not want to add another mess beyond Iraq and Afghanistan, and partly because Obama is facing enormous budgetary pressures. There is still a strong quarrel within NATO, many countries obviously do not want to get involved in the civil strife in Libya, and most of the time France is playing a one-man show. And without the full support of the United States, France is already somewhat overwhelmed.

2. The root cause of the Middle East and North Africa problem.

Economic distress will not disappear with political turmoil, but will be exacerbated by it. On the contrary, the transformation of the economic structure or the improvement of the quality of the economy requires a stable political and social environment. The countries of the Middle East and North Africa are in a marginal position in the global division of labor because of their long-term foreign intervention, their economic structure is homogeneous, and they are heavily dependent on the international market.

To a certain extent, modern information and network technology has broken the original still water and deep current, making potential conflicts flammable and sudden and difficult to spread uncontrollably. From this, we can see that some of the current international turmoil is not caused by inter-state conflicts, but may catalyze spillover from intra-state conflicts to regional conflicts. This is a noteworthy feature of the current turmoil in North Africa and the Middle East.

3. The political impact of the situation in the Middle East and North Africa on China.

Political turmoil has intensified the domestic political struggles in some countries for a considerable period of time, weakened their functions, and failed to provide a basic guarantee for economic development and social stability. After the coups in Tunisia and Egypt, the new ** has not been established for a long time, the street politics is still continuing, and the political forces are being re-divided and combined, and it is difficult to form a stable and reliable ** in the short term. In Egypt, for example, the Muslim Brotherhood is a political party with deep Islamic overtones, representing religious forces that demand to participate in the country's political affairs, the military, which is currently temporarily holding state power, is the most powerful faction of state power, and dozens of secular political parties are currently being divided and combined.

These three forces all have a pivotal position in Egyptian politics, and it is impossible for any of them to be excluded, and the strength base, power, governing philosophy and behavior patterns of the three forces are very different. Egypt is currently working on a new constitution under the leadership of the military, but any new constitution must meet the needs of these three forces. Historically, these three forces have never worked closely together, and it will not happen overnight to form a stable framework for cooperation in the future.

The political situation in Libya and Yemen is even more worrying, because the existence of tribal forces cannot be ruled out for a long time, and the people will be thrown into the abyss of despair because of this. As a result, US observers of the Middle East assert that the political turmoil in the Middle East is only the beginning.

Internationally, the recent escalation of the conflict between Israel and Palestine has resulted in a large number of civilian deaths. I think this kind of war is a tragedy from every point of view. Every life should be respected, and no form of violence will solve the problem, it will only bring more pain and harm.

I hope that the two sides will be able to cease fire as soon as possible, resolve their differences through dialogue and negotiation, and achieve peaceful coexistence.

Domestically, the recent outbreak of the epidemic in many places in China has once again attracted widespread attention. I believe that the pandemic is a common challenge facing the world, and all countries should strengthen cooperation and jointly respond to it. At the same time, everyone has the responsibility to protect themselves and contribute their own strength, comply with epidemic prevention and control measures, and reduce the spread and impact of the epidemic.

Recently, there have also been some incidents in the field of education in China, such as the rejection of students due to the enrollment system for special students, which has triggered public discussions about fair and just education. I believe that education is a right that everyone should enjoy, and that every student should be provided with equal opportunities and resources to avoid injustice. At the same time, we should also respect everyone's choices and strengths, and we should not ignore the actual situation of students just because of one system.

On May 7, Tencent, a Chinese Internet backup network company, announced that it would postpone the game time for minors under the age of 16 and limit the amount of game recharge. I think this is a positive way to protect the physical and mental well-being of minors and to promote a healthy gaming environment. At the same time, we should also pay attention to the safety of minors in the online world, and strengthen the education and management of minors at home and school.
