On November 9, Anwar Gargash, a senior Emirati official and diplomatic adviser to the UAE president, warned during a geopolitical conference in Abu Dhabi about prolonged regional uncertainty. He stated that achieving a comprehensive political settlement between the United States and Iran to end their ongoing war appears difficult after more than eight months of conflict. Gargash also noted that the consequences of this war may persist for an extended period, necessitating increased investment by the UAE in defensive capabilities and stronger international security partnerships. The UAE has consistently opposed the US-Iran war since its inception.
