GCC Secretary-General Calls for Global Response to Iran and Houthi Attacks
The Secretary-General of the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) affirmed that Iran's attacks on GCC countries, along with the Houthis' threats to close the Bab al-Mandab Strait, demand a firm international stance that defends respect for international law, guarantees freedom of navigation, and protects vital energy infrastructure and natural resources. He pointed out that GCC countries possess around 30% of the world's oil reserves and 20% of the gas reserves, contributing a quarter of global oil production, which enhances their role in stabilizing energy markets despite ongoing attacks from Iran. These actions are a violation of international law and pose a threat to regional and global security. He called on the international community to assume its responsibilities to halt these assaults and uphold the sovereignty and territorial integrity of nations. Additionally, he condemned the Houthis' threats to block the Bab al-Mandab Strait, emphasizing that such actions threaten global strategic freedom of navigation.
