A Saudi Arabian Defense Doctrine for a New Era

Saudi Arabia has in recent years consolidated its place as the preeminent Arab leader, regional stabilizer, and critical bulwark against terrorism and a nuclear Iran. The Kingdom's growing security responsibilities require rapid and substantial military investments.

Prince Sultan bin Khaled Al Faisal and Nawaf Obaid will outline a comprehensive Saudi Arabian Defense Doctrine for a new era and explain why the Kingdom is likely to double down on defense and national security capabilities in the next decade.

Featuring:

Prince Sultan bin Khaled Al Faisal
President of Al Joshan Security Services. Former Commander of the Royal Saudi Naval Forces (RSNF) Counter-Insurgency Special Operations Task Force and Designer and Inaugural Commandant, RSNF Special Forces Training Center

Nawaf Obaid
Visiting Fellow and Associate Lecturer at Harvard's Belfer Center for Science and International Affairs
