Five GCC Security Pillars
During the 2026 Manama Dialogue summit, Gulf Cooperation Council Secretary-General Jassim Al-Budaiwi outlined five pillars of regional security: commitment to international law, state sovereignty and good-neighborly relations; strengthening collective defense; resolving disputes through diplomacy; safeguarding navigation and energy flows; and linking stability to development and economic partnerships. He called for the implementation of UN Security Council Resolution 2817, introduced by Bahrain on behalf of the GCC states and Jordan and sponsored by 136 countries, as well as faster defense coordination and the establishment of an early-warning network. He pointed to disruptions to navigation in the Strait of Hormuz and the resulting rise in energy and shipping costs. Al-Budaiwi added that the GCC countries’ economic output of around $2.4 trillion bolstered their ability to weather crises. He reiterated the Council’s support for a comprehensive political settlement in Yemen and a just solution to the Palestinian issue based on the two-state principle.
