以色列是美国历史上第一个与其签署自由贸易协定的国家。约旦是第一个与美国签署自由贸易协定的阿拉伯国家。美国选择与以、约两国签署自由贸易协定,是美国利用自由贸易协定作为实现美国对中东战略的工具。九一一事件后,美国出于反恐战略的需要,提出了建立“美国中东自由贸易区计划”。美国企图借助自由贸易协定,促进中东国家的市场化改革,加快经济增长,从而为今后推销西方式的民主化奠定基础,借力实施美国对中东的战略。
Israel is the first country in the history of the United States to sign a free trade agreement with it. Jordan is the first Arab country to sign a free trade agreement with the United States. The fact that the United States has chosen to sign free trade agreements with Israel and the United States is the basis for the United States to use free trade agreements as a tool to realize the U.S. strategy toward the Middle East. After the September 11 incident, the United States proposed the establishment of the “U.S. Middle East Free Trade Area Plan” for the purpose of the anti-terrorism strategy. The United States intends to use free trade agreements to promote market-oriented reforms in the Middle East countries and accelerate economic growth, so as to lay the foundation for the promotion of Western democratization in the future and leveraging on the U.S. strategy toward the Middle East.
