After Iran attacked Kuwait last night (between Wednesday and Thursday), a diplomatic source in the Gulf states said in a conversation with N12 that there has been a certain change in attitude toward Iran. Patience toward Tehran is eroding and the trust in the ability to reach understandings with it is disappearing, while the Gulf states find themselves paying the price for the continued missile and UAV launches, and the regional escalation.

However, the source emphasizes that there is currently no unified position in the Gulf regarding the course of action against Tehran. There is no consensus on a single solution, he said. While some countries continue to seek a path to de-escalation and settlement, others are increasingly losing faith in the possibility of reaching a solution with Iran. The source expressed pessimism regarding the possibility of reaching understandings with Tehran. According to him, the attempts made to reach agreements with Iran did not lead to a stable long-term solution, and ultimately did not prove themselves.
