Dr Anwar Gargash, UAE's diplomatic adviser, has urged for enhanced Gulf security and collective defense, emphasizing that threats to one state put the entire region at risk. In an X post, he maintained that the security of Gulf states is indivisible. Gargash highlighted that aggression against the Gulf Arab states, driven by the aggressor's flawed belief that they were the weakest link in an unnecessary war, has revealed that every state is targeted and their security is interconnected.
He stressed that attacks on Saudi Arabia also jeopardize the security of the UAE and all Gulf states. Gargash advocated for enhanced regional coordination, especially in security and defense, and stronger collective security arrangements. He emphasized the need to revitalize joint Gulf actions, particularly in security and defense, and to bolster the collective security system.
Gargash pointed out that shortcomings in regional cooperation have fueled current challenges, noting that these deficiencies have encouraged others to overstep against the Gulf states. He stressed that collective responsibility in Gulf security cannot be neglected or delayed.
