UAE criticises 'weak' response to Iran from other Gulf countries
The UAE has criticised its Gulf allies over its response to the Israel-US war on Iran.
Presidential advisor Anwar Gargash said the six-member Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) had failed to respond collectively after Iran launched retaliatory attacks against them.
"The GCC's stance was the weakest historically, considering the nature of the attack and the threat it posed to everyone," Gargash said.
Gargash said he "expected such a weak stance from the Arab League", the 22-member organisation of Middle East and North African nations based in Cairo.
"But I don't expect it from the GCC, and I am surprised by it," he told a conference in Dubai.
