The conflict that has gripped the Middle East, and seen Gulf nations come under Iranian attack, has brought the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) and the EU into an “even closer relationship”, GCC Secretary-General Jasem Mohamed Albudaiwi has told Euronews.
The war has also prompted Gulf countries to “upgrade” their partnerships with many “true and trusted friends, including the EU”, the Secretary-General added, signalling an interest in expanding cooperation with the bloc.
