The news that the UAE is talking with, and making concessions to, Iran is huge. The UAE is denying it, but they see to be lying: 1) The UAE just paid Iran $3B to stop attacking it, the total sum will be $10B to $20B reportedly. 2) The UAE was the most hawkish Gulf state in this war. It lobbied Washington to keep fighting. Now its national security adviser is hosting IRGC officials in his guest house. A massive victory for Iran. 3) Why is this happening? The war emptied Dubai's hotels and cracked the safe-haven brand. Abu Dhabi learned the US would not shield it from drones. So it bought its own ceasefire. Iran now has all the Gulf States coming to it for protection. This is a massive strategic defeat for Israel and the US who are losing the trust of their closest ally in the region. I believe this is a step towards a Persian Gulf with greater cooperation and eventual Chinese dominance instead of American.
