Why Gulf Cooperation Became Essential

The article discusses the importance of strengthening Gulf Cooperation—from cooperation to a strategic union—especially amid increasing regional and international challenges. It clarifies that the Gulf's strength does not lie in its population density, which is estimated at around 30 million people, but rather in its economic capabilities and success in building advanced infrastructure and large sovereign funds. This grants it an economic and strategic power position compared to its neighboring countries with larger populations, such as Iran, Iraq, and Yemen. The article indicates that evolving the Gulf Cooperation Council into a form of gradual union enhances the ability of Gulf countries to protect their multifaceted interests—security and economic—particularly in light of regional powers competing for control over resources and geographic location. It emphasizes that maintaining these achievements requires collective effort to prevent the region from falling under hegemonic influence.
