Iran Accuses UAE of Betrayal and Facilitating Military Aggression
Iran’s Deputy Foreign Minister Kazem Gharibabadi has strongly accused the United Arab Emirates of betraying Tehran by facilitating military attacks during the recent American-Israeli war. Speaking at the BRICS foreign ministers’ meeting in New Delhi, Gharibabadi labeled the UAE an aggressor under UN resolutions for allowing US and Israeli use of its facilities. He justified Iranian strikes on US-linked assets in the UAE as acts of self-defense, asserting that Iran’s conflict is with Israel and the US, not its neighbors. Conversely, UAE Minister of State Khalifa bin Shaheen Almarar rejected these claims, accusing Iran of launching over 3,000 missile and drone attacks on civilian infrastructure and disrupting shipping routes. Reports indicate high-level Israeli visits to the UAE and coordinated military actions, including an attack on an Iranian petrochemical site on Lavan Island. The article suggests that Israel benefits from the resulting tension, which has isolated the UAE within the Gulf. With Tehran expressing deep frustration and the UAE maintaining its defensive stance, the analysis predicts the UAE may join US and Israeli forces if hostilities resume.
