Who won the war?

The imposed end to the crisis signalled the definitive weakening of the United Kingdom and France as global powers. Middle-sized powers were no longer free to act independently. Nasser's standing in the Arab world was greatly improved, with his stance helping to promote pan-Arabism. Although Egyptian forces had stood no chance against the three allies, many Egyptians believed that Nasser had won the war militarily. I think that he has actually won as he has succeeded politically and gave confidence to other Arab states, even though militarily he may not have won.

I think that the real winner should be Nasser. Nasser stood to his stand throughout the war, even though he was losing militarily. He did not give up on Suez Canal, as if he did, the war would have ended with The Tripartite aggressors winning. IN the end with the aid of UN pressure, The Tripartite were forced out of Egypt and it made like Egypt had won the war, but this would not have happened if Nasser gave up the Suez Canal. Therefore, the aftermath was that pan-Arabism was promoted and it proved to Arab states that the UK and France were weakening as global powers, and middle sized powers were no longer free to act independently.
