This document analyzes the U.S. Government’s promotion of King Saud, and provides lessons on interagency policy development and execution in an important theater at a critical time. In the mid- to late-1950s, the Eisenhower administration undertook a concerted effort to make King Saud bin Abd al-Aziz of Saudi Arabia an outstanding leader in the Middle East and a counterbalance to Egyptian President Gamal Abdel Nasser.
