Dubai, UAE – Dr. Anwar Mohammed Gargash, Diplomatic Advisor to His Highness the President of the State, affirmed that the United Arab Emirates proves day after day that “its resilience is stronger than the hatred of the aggressor,”
He stressed that the Iranian regime’s resort to targeting the Arab Gulf states instead of direct confrontation with its adversaries reflects a state of strategic confusion. Furthermore, it shows international isolation.
Military impotence and moral bankruptcy
In a strongly worded post on his official X platform, Dr. Gargash analyzed the background of the recent Iranian escalation. He asserted that “the Iranian strategy,
which reflects its inability to confront American and Israeli strikes by targeting Gulf Arab states, reveals military impotence, moral bankruptcy, and political isolation.”
Gargash pointed out that Tehran, instead of responding to attacks targeting its strategic islands and territory, chooses the easier
He added that this is a more treacherous path of threatening its neighbors—
a behavior indicative of a poor assessment of the military situation.
In addition, it shows a failure to manage regional crises.
The truth behind media misinformation
Diplomatic advisor Gargash continued, explaining that the Iranian media machine will not succeed in changing the facts on the ground,
saying, “This reality cannot be obscured by misleading media statements.”
He addressed a direct message to the leadership in Tehran,
stating that the only way out of the current dark tunnel lies not in missile escalation or threats to strike ports,
but in “returning to reason,” which begins with ceasing attacks on neighbors
and activating the Gulf mediation channels that have always extended a hand of peace.
The UAE: An impregnable fortress
Gargash concluded his remarks by emphasizing the strength of the UAE’s home front and its defense capabilities.
He stressed that the “aggressor’s malice” would not undermine the nation’s resolve or its development path.
These statements come at a time of unprecedented tension in the region. The UAE is placing its national security and territorial sovereignty above all else.
Moreover, it relies on the unity of its leadership and people. It also depends on the readiness of its armed forces to deter any attempt to threaten its stability.
