Consequences of the War for Gulf Countries
The Arab countries along the Gulf, which host U.S. military bases, have been targeted by extensive Iranian attacks during the war. These countries are also facing significant economic losses due to disruptions in oil and gas exports. This situation has directly impacted the economies of these countries and necessitates an appropriate strategy for post-war management.
In this context, Benjamin Netanyahu, the Prime Minister of Israel, is also seeking to meet with Trump in New York, but so far no meeting has been scheduled between the two sides. Trump has also expressed hope that we are nearing the end of the war and has once again claimed that Iran is seeking an agreement.
Participation of Other Countries in the Meeting
Reports indicate that the leaders or foreign ministers of all six member countries of the Gulf Cooperation Council, including Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates, Qatar, Bahrain, Kuwait, and Oman, will attend this meeting. The U.S. State Department has sent out initial invitations for this meeting, and it is likely that the scope of the meeting will expand to include leaders from other Arab and Muslim countries as well.
This meeting is considered an important opportunity to review U.S. relations with Arab countries and future strategies regarding regional security and stability, and it could have wide-ranging impacts on future developments in the Middle East.
