The Case for a New U.S.-Saudi Strategic Compact

By Martin S Indyk, Steven A Cook, Martin Indyk

The U.S.-Saudi strategic partnership has frayed. The United States has grown frustrated with Saudi Arabia's human rights record and reluctance to stabilize the oil market, while Riyadh has come to believe that Washington is no longer willing to guarantee the kingdom's security. While a new arrangement would require both parties to swallow their pride, it is rooted in a realistic recognition of each country's strategic priorities.
