Finally US vital interests in the region will not change with the ending of sanctions. Accordingly a new military approach should be developed-one that elevaland-based aerospace power into the main effort of a joint strategy.</p><p>This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.
