UAE follows Saudi Arabia in joining coalition to protect Gulf navigation after oil attacks, Iraq will not
|
[Rudaw] The United Arab Emirates (UAE) joined the US-led coalition to protect Persian Gulf navigation, just one day after Soddy Arabia
...a kingdom taking up the bulk of the Arabian peninsula. Its primary economic activity involves exporting oil and soaking Islamic rubes on the annual hajj pilgrimage. The country supports a large number of princes in whatcha might call princely splendor. When the oil runs out the rest of the world is going to kick sand in the Soddy national face...
joined the alliance aimed at protecting maritime interests amid heightened tensions with Iran.
The UAE said on Thursday that it would join the coalition, officially named the International Maritime Security Construct, to guarantee the security of oil shipments in the region in order to maintain the global economy.
"UAE will be part of the US-led coalition to protect the navigation of oil shipments," said Salim al-Zuubi, the Director of the Security Cooperation Department at the UAE Ministry of Foreign Affairs, in a statement. "UAE and the coalition both aim to provide protection for the oil movement in the region in order to sustain the global economy."
Iraq will not join US-led Gulf navigation coalition after call with Iranian foreign minister
[Rudaw] The Iraqi foreign ministry front man says Iraq will not join any coalition to protect the Gulf navigation on Thursday.
The US is currently trying to get regional states to join the International Maritime Security Construct, which it formed in August following heightened tensions with Iran
...a theocratic Shiite state divided among the Medes, the Persians, and the (Arab) Elamites. Formerly a fairly civilized nation ruled by a Shah, it became a victim of Islamic revolution in 1979. The nation is today noted for spontaneously taking over other countries' embassies, maintaining whorehouses run by clergymen, involvement in international drug trafficking, and financing sock puppet militias to extend the regime's influence. The word Iran is a cognate form of Aryan, the abbreviation IRGC is a cognate form of Stürmabteilung (or SA), the term Supreme Guide is a cognate form of either Shah or Führer or maybe both, and they hate Jews Zionists Jews. Their economy is based on the production of oil and vitriol...
in the Persian Gulf. The front man Ahmed Sahaaf said that Iraq has no intention to join any coalition and rejects possibly Israeli participation in the alliance after the Jewish state expressed interest in joining.
"Iraq will not be part of any coalition which aims to provide protection for Gulf navigation," Sahaaf told Rudaw English. "Iraq also refuses any Israeli participation in any coalition to protect Gulf navigation."
Sahaaf also said that the protection of the Persian Gulf is the "responsibility of the surrounding countries."
Iraq’s declaration of not joining the US-led coalition follows a call the Iraqi Ministry of Foreign Affairs received from its Iranian counterpart on Thursday, in which both sides agreed to maintain the security in the region and develop the positive relations between the two countries.
Iran yields considerable influence in Iraq. Iran is one of Iraq’s main energy providers, and Iraq has had to get exemptions from US sanctions on Iran to continue receiving energy from the Islamic Theocratic Republic .
Iran also backs the powerful Popular Mobilization Forces (PMF), also known as Hashd al-Shaabi, in Iraq. The militias, which were formed to fight ISIS
 ...embracing their inner Islamic Brute...
, now have some of their leaders in the Iraqi parliament. The head of the Fatih Coalition in the parliament and PMF leader Hadi al-Ameri fought with Iran in the Iran-Iraq war in the 1980s, for example.
There were a series of attacks on oil vessels in the Persian Gulf in May and June this year, creating fears for the freedom of navigation in the strategic waterway of the Strait of Hormuz, prompting the US to start the coalition in August.
The situation prompted the US to start its maritime security coalition in the Gulf. So far, the UK, Australia, Saudi Arabia, Bahrain and the UAE have joined. Saudi Arabia and the UAE joined shortly after Saturday;s attacks on the oil installations.
