UAE's Gargash Sees '50-50' Odds of US-Iran Deal, Warns Against Renewed Fighting
Anwar Gargash said talks have a 50-50 chance of success and warned that a ceasefire without a wider settlement could fuel new conflict.
- On Friday, diplomatic advisor to the United Arab Emirates President Anwar Gargash stated there is a "50-50 chance" of a U.S.-Iran peace agreement, emphasizing that any settlement must address regional root causes of instability.
- The oil-rich UAE faced about 3,300 drones and missiles during 40 days of war from February 28 onwards, with Iran targeting infrastructure near Dubai and Abu Dhabi, prompting regional security concerns.
- Gargash noted Iran's atomic program is now the primary regional worry, cautioning that Iranian officials often "overestimate their cards" and have "missed a lot of chances over the years" during negotiations in Prague.
- The Strait of Hormuz must return to its pre-war status as an international waterway, Gargash argued, urging European nations to recognize the link between the strait's stability and their energy security interests.
- Pakistan has been mediating a U.S.-Iran ceasefire to end the war disrupting global trade through the strait, though Gargash warned that a second round of military confrontation would further complicate the regional situation.
