Policy Brief: Iraq, Iran and Turkey

6 December 2007

One year since the release of the Baker-Hamilton Iraq Study Group report, WSI Senior Fellow John Newhouse revisits the Study Group's recommendations in his latest policy brief, "Iraq, Iran and Turkey: A Regional Approach." Newhouse argues that the United States must keep a low profile in Iraq and push for a regional framework for resolving the crisis. But it must also realize that bigger issues now threaten the region, such as how to deal with Iran and Turkey's powder-keg situation in northern Iraq.
