Islamabad (TNI) – According to the American newspaper Wall Street Journal, Gulf countries led by Saudi Arabia have opposed the US attack on Iran.
According to the Wall Street Journal, Saudi Arabia, Qatar, and Oman have warned the United States not to attack Iran, otherwise the global oil market will be shaken and this will also harm the American economy.
According to the newspaper, these Arab countries are apparently silent, but they are lobbying in the background to prevent the United States from attacking Iran because it would severely damage the global oil market and would inevitably affect the American economy.
According to the newspaper, Saudi officials have assured Tehran that they will not engage in any conflict with Iran and will not allow the United States to use its airspace to attack Iran. This move has been taken as an attempt to distance themselves from and deter American action.
According to the American newspaper, Arab states fear that an attack on Iran could affect the flow of oil tankers passing through the Strait of Hormuz, a narrow waterway at the mouth of the Persian Gulf that separates Iran from its Arab neighbors and through which about a fifth of the world’s oil is transported.
According to the newspaper, the Trump administration has not clarified what type of military action against Iran is being considered, but officials say an attack is highly likely.
A White House official told the Wall Street Journal that President Trump has all options available to deal with the Iran situation. The president listens to different opinions but ultimately makes the decision he thinks is best.
Yesterday, Trump directly addressed Iranian protesters, asking them to oppose the government’s efforts to suppress the protests and seize state institutions, and wrote on his social media platform Truth Social that "help is coming.”
