Southwest Asia, often referred to as the Middle East, remains a region of strategic importance due to its rich oil reserves and complex geopolitical dynamics. Conflicts like the Syrian civil war, tensions between Iran and Saudi Arabia, and the Israeli-Palestinian dispute continue to shape global policies.

However, political instability, religious divides, and foreign intervention often hinder the region’s growth and peace efforts.
