Report: Saudi Arabia Floats Middle East Non-Aggression Pact With Iran
Any non-aggression pact is expected to be opposed by Israel and potentially the UAE | Saudi Arabia has discussed a non-aggression pact with Middle East states and Iran in conversations with its allies about what the region will look like following the end of the US-Israeli war against Iran, the Financial Times has reported. ● The report noted that the US’s Gulf Arab allies are worried they will be left with a powerful Iran in the region and a scaled-back US military presence. Satellite images show that many of the US bases across the region have been badly damaged or destroyed by Iranian missile and drone attacks. ● The Saudis have floated something similar to the 1975 Helsinki Accords, which were meant to reduce Cold War tensions between the Soviet Union and the US’s allies in Europe.
✅ ОАЭ пытались собрать антииранскую коалицию — не вышло (Елена Панина) [...] It is clear that the Emiratis are acting primarily in the interests of Tel Aviv and Washington—which need someone to do their fighting for them. At least on the ground. Especially since Saudi Arabia has plans that are directly opposed to this—namely, to conclude a non-aggression pact with Iran. Admittedly, these plans are unlikely to be realized for now—due to the aggressive policies of the very same U.S. and Israel. (Translation: DeepL.com)
