According to The Washington Post, frustration with the United States is rising among Washington’s Gulf allies, citing Arab and Western officials. Officials familiar with the matter said several Gulf states, including Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates and Qatar, have reached a shared view in their dissatisfaction with the Trump administration. Some have also begun discussing whether it is still necessary to allow the U.S. to maintain large military facilities on their soil. The concern has been sharpened by Trump’s recent pattern of threatening a new round of large-scale strikes on Iran and then withdrawing those threats, saying negotiations had made progress. Gulf states are increasingly worried that Trump lacks the diplomatic ability to reach a peace agreement with Iran.
