Qatar says Gulf cannot rely on US alone for security

Gulf nations, including Qatar, are being urged to become more self-reliant in terms of security rather than depending solely on the United States and international alliances, according to Qatar's foreign ministry spokesman. Speaking at the Hili Forum in Abu Dhabi, he emphasized that while partnerships with the U.S. and other allies are crucial, they are insufficient for ensuring regional security. Qatar, which hosts the largest U.S. military base in the Middle East, has been actively involved in mediating between the U.S. and Iran amid ongoing tensions. The country has faced significant threats from Iran, particularly targeting its energy infrastructure. Recently, Qatar’s Prime Minister visited Tehran to facilitate discussions aimed at easing the current standoff, including proposals for a temporary shipping corridor and mine-clearing operations.
