Dr Anwar Gargash, diplomatic adviser to President Sheikh Mohamed, has said strengthening unity among Gulf Co-operation Council countries was “an utmost necessity” in the face of threats to member states’ security and stability.
His remarks came after renewed Iranian strikes on Kuwait and Bahrain this week, in retaliation for a wave of US attacks on Iran.
“There is no alternative but to unite our ranks to rise to these challenges, in defence of our sovereignty and the preservation of our achievements, guided by our shared destiny and common interests,” wrote Mr Gargash on X.
“That is the message of the UAE and its leadership,” he added, with an image of UAE President Sheikh Mohamed meeting Sheikh Meshal, Emir of Kuwait, in Kuwait today.
Sheikh Mohamed arrived in Kuwait on today, only hours after the country came under renewed attack by Iran.
