Trilateral Pact Defines Iran Barriers
The Gulf and Sunni states, led by Saudi Arabia, have formed a defensive naval alliance comprising 14 countries, aimed at protecting the Strait of Hormuz, Bab el-Mandeb, and the Gulf of Aden from Iranian threats and the groups supported by Iran. This agreement comes in response to Iran's attempts to control the Strait of Hormuz and is a reaction to Iran's connections with the Houthis and Popular Mobilization Forces in Iraq, with the goal of targeting the interests of Saudi Arabia and the Gulf countries. It reflects a strategic regional shift, where Sunni states are emerging as central powers confronting Iranian threats. These alliances are leading to a reordering of military and political priorities in the region, with Lebanon and Syria playing diminishing roles, and the region moving toward a deterrent balance that ensures the security of vital maritime routes and regional interests.
