UAE presidential adviser Anwar Gargash says the Gulf is “paying the price for Iran’s inflated regional ambitions”.

In a post on X, Gargash said, “From the Arabian Gulf to Yemen, Lebanon, and Iraq, we are all paying the price for Iran’s inflated regional ambitions,” adding that no state should play a role at “the expense of shared security, stability, and prosperity”.

“Review is required and inevitable, on clear foundations: respect for sovereignty, good neighbourliness, and non-interference in others’ affairs,” he added.
