Summary
This page appears to be part of a geopolitical report or briefing paper (likely utilized by the House Oversight Committee) detailing the economic strength and military strategy of Saudi Arabia. It highlights Saudi Arabia's massive financial reserves ($550B) and military spending ($100B) intended to counter regional threats like Iran and the Muslim Brotherhood. It argues that while Saudi Arabia remains a U.S. partner in counterterrorism, the Kingdom is increasingly pursuing an independent security agenda due to perceived failures in U.S. policy.
