The leaders of the three countries fear that the resumption of hostilities will lead to chaos in the Gulf economies. They believe that military action will not bring the desired result.<\/p>\n<h2>Basic context<\/h2>\n<p>The United Arab Emirates, Saudi Arabia and Qatar have appealed to the <strong>Donald Trump<\/strong> with a request to give diplomatic efforts a chance to end the war with Iran. The leaders of the countries expressed their belief that military action would not achieve the US goals for Iran. These countries fear that <a href=\"https:\/\/ukrmedia.news\/politics\/tramp-vidhylyv-plan-iranu-ssha-konflikt\/\">restoration of combat<\/a> Tehran's actions will cause chaos in the Gulf economies.<\/p>\n<p>Pros. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bloomberg.com\/news\/articles\/2026-05-22\/uae-joins-saudis-qatar-in-urging-trump-not-to-restart-iran-war?srnd=homepage-europe\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">information<\/a> Bloomberg, the UAE, Saudi Arabia and Qatar have different views on what a diplomatic deal with the US should look like, but they share a common concern about a repeat of the conflict that began in February and led to multiple rocket and drone attacks on regional infrastructure.<\/p>\n<h2>The role of the UAE and regional coordination<\/h2>\n<p>UAE shows a significant shift in its policy, calling for an end to <a href=\"https:\/\/ukrmedia.news\/world\/iran-poperedyv-ssha-pro-vidpovid-u-razi-novykh-atak\/\">war with Iran<\/a>, despite the fact that the country had previously been one of the toughest in the region against Tehran. This step became particularly noticeable after the UAE's decision to withdraw from the <a href=\"https:\/\/ukrmedia.news\/economics\/oae-vykhid-z-opek-naslidky-rynok-nafty\/\">OPEC<\/a> in April, which caused tensions with Saudi Arabia and other members of the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC).<\/p>\n<p>However, since then, relations within the GCC have improved. The UAE's Ministry of Foreign Affairs has reported continuing close coordination with GCC member states and international partners. At the same time, the countries of the region support Pakistan's mediation in the negotiations between the United States and Iran.<\/p>\n<h2>Military threats and consequences for the region<\/h2>\n<p>The conflict between Iran and the United States has led to massive attacks by Iranian and Tehran-backed forces on the Gulf infrastructure. In particular, the attacks have killed many people and caused billions of dollars in damage. The most recent incident was a drone attack on a nuclear facility in the UAE, for which Iranian groups in Iraq were blamed.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Anvar Gargash<\/strong>, Senior Advisor to the President of the UAE, expressed concern that Iran may again delay the talks, making it more difficult to reach a political solution. He emphasised: \u201cA second round of military confrontation will only complicate the situation.\u201d.<\/p>\n<h2>Prospects for negotiations and the US position<\/h2>\n<p>Although Iran and the United States have officially announced <a href=\"https:\/\/ukrmedia.news\/world\/tramp-peremyrya-iran-viyna-tryvatyme-tyzhni-oae-udar\/\">truce<\/a> On 8 April, both sides express their readiness to resume hostilities. US Secretary of State Marco Rubio reported \u00ablittle progress\u00bb in the talks, and Iranian media expressed similar assessments. Pakistan Army Chief Asim Munir paid a visit to Iran, which can be seen as a sign of rapprochement between the parties.<\/p>\n<p>US President Donald Trump is in a difficult situation: the war has already cost the US tens of billions of dollars, and energy prices have risen due to the blockade of the Strait of Hormuz. At the same time, Trump is oscillating between threatening large-scale strikes against Iran and trying to reach a peace agreement.<\/p>\n<h2>Positions of Saudi Arabia and Qatar<\/h2>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/ukrmedia.news\/world\/saudivska-araviia-taiemni-ataky-iran\/\">Saudi Arabia<\/a> supports Pakistan's mediation and believes that the issues of Iran's nuclear and missile programmes can only be resolved through negotiations. The Saudi government proposes to focus on opening the Strait of Hormuz and maintaining the naval blockade of Iranian ports to put pressure on Tehran.<\/p>\n<p>Qatar also supports Pakistani mediation and advocates de-escalation of the conflict for the sake of regional stability. The UAE Foreign Ministry emphasises that any agreement must cover the full range of threats posed by Iran, including nuclear weapons, ballistic missiles, drones and support for proxy groups.<\/p>\n<p>Minister of Foreign Affairs of Saudi Arabia <strong>Faisal bin Farhan<\/strong> thanked Trump for his decision to give diplomacy a chance and reach an acceptable agreement with Iran.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u041e\u0431\u2019\u0454\u0434\u043d\u0430\u043d\u0456 \u0410\u0440\u0430\u0431\u0441\u044c\u043a\u0456
