Another shockwave is rippling through Washington’s Middle East strategy. After the UAE, Saudi Arabia has now refused to support any U.S. military strike on Iran, denying use of its airspace, territory, or infrastructure. As U.S. warships move closer to the region, President Donald Trump appears increasingly isolated, even as the risk of escalation grows.

Regional officials say Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman personally conveyed the message to Iran’s President Masoud Pezeshkian, emphasizing dialogue and de-escalation. Riyadh’s priority is avoiding a regional war that could destabilize the Gulf and energy markets. The UAE’s parallel refusal highlights a widening fracture among key U.S. allies.
