McMaster begins this section by recounting his visit to the country with President Trump in late 2017. McMaster asserts that American policy in the region must be built on long-term strategies that consider the realities of the region, rather than limited objectives based on domestic political considerations.[6] McMaster also offers considered analysis of both Iran and North Korea, and the unique problems of engaging with either regime. Part of the deal included the release of American hostages, and McMaster compares the episode to the illicit Iran-Contra Affair under President Ronald Reagan.[9] If there is any criticism to be had with this book, it is that McMaster moves quite quickly through each nation and region.
