The entire Arab region is paying the price for what he described as Iran's inflated regional ambitions, diplomatic Adviser to the UAE President Anwar Gargash said.
“From the Arabian Gulf to Yemen, Lebanon and Iraq, we are all paying the price of Iran's inflated regional ambitions. The role of any country in the region cannot be at the expense of security, stability and shared prosperity,” Gargash said.
He called for a reassessment of regional relations based on sovereignty, good neighbourliness and non-interference.
“A policy was both necessary and inevitable, as our future relations with Iran should be built on clear foundations, including respect for sovereignty, good neighbourliness and non-interference in the affairs of others," Gargash said.
