The “Juniper” series of events are designed to test collective U.S.-Israeli readiness and improve the interoperability of defense systems. These exercises offer prime opportunities for USCENTCOM and the IDF to partner and innovate together, solidifying the strategic relationship between the U.S. and Israel while contributing to regional stability. The U.S. remains committed to the security of Israel and supports Israel’s qualitative military edge. (Photo courtesy of the IDF Spokesperson's Office)

Dr. Eyal Hulata served as the national security advisor to Israeli Prime Ministers Naftali Bennett and Yair Lapid. Israel starts 2023 with a prime minister who is both new and old, a new army chief of staff, and a long list of old and new national security challenges. Dr. Hulata joins us to share insights gleaned from his time in office and his sense of the major decisions his successor will face in the coming year.
