The neighboring countries based on the consideration that the security doctrine of a country expresses the degree of its interest, response and dealing with the challenges and issues it faces, and its interpretation from a purely security perception by decision-makers in the state, and also on the totality of opinions, beliefs and principles that constitute an intellectual system that defines national security of state and explains the overall events that pose a threat to it (of a security nature).
