Gulf States Work to Prevent U.S.-Iran Conflict

Several key U.S. allies in the Middle East, including Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Egypt, and Oman, are engaging in 72 hours of intense diplomacy to prevent military conflict between Iran and the U.S. They are urging the U.S. to refrain from strikes on Iran and warning Iran against retaliatory attacks on U.S. facilities. President Trump has indicated that military action may not be imminent, while Iran’s Supreme Leader has cautioned against such strikes. Current efforts focus on de-escalation, aiming to pave the way for future discussions on a nuclear deal.
