Will UAE enter war against Iran? Joined hands with America to open the Strait of Hormuz

Instead of decreasing, the tension in the Middle East now seems to be increasing. The ongoing conflict with Iran has taken a new turn. The United Arab Emirates (UAE) no longer wants to remain a mere spectator, but is preparing to directly participate in this conflict. Due to this, the situation may become more serious in the coming days. The Strait of Hormuz has become the most important point of this entire dispute.

This sea route is very important for the world’s oil and gas trade. According to reports, the UAE is now considering taking military action in collaboration with the US and its allies to secure this waterway. If this happens, it will be the first time that a Gulf country will openly play an active role in this conflict.

UAE’s changing attitude

Till now UAE had tried to maintain balance with Iran. There have also been trade relations between the two countries and the UAE has played the role of mediator many times. But after the recent attacks his stance has become tough. According to sources, the UAE is gathering support for a resolution in the United Nations that could allow military action to secure the Strait of Hormuz. For this, he is trying to form an alliance with the countries of America, Europe and Asia.

According to reports, hundreds of missile and drone attacks have been carried out by Iran on UAE in the last few weeks, due to which the threat to its infrastructure and energy sector has increased. According to an official, Iran is now fighting for its survival and it will not back down from closing this important waterway to affect the global economy.

In such a situation, UAE no longer wants to be limited to diplomacy only. He is considering how to contribute at the military level. This may include removing sea mines, protecting ships and other essential services. Some suggestions also say that America should control the important islands located near the strait, although there is controversy over this.

Change in strategy of Gulf countries

Not only UAE, but Saudi Arabia and other Gulf countries are also now adopting a tough stance against Iran. Although they have not yet directly deployed their forces, they want to maintain pressure on Iran. This change is also important because till now these countries were maintaining distance from the conflict.
