UAE military involvement in Iran war ‘not necessarily’ off the table— A senior Emirati military official say that while the United Arab Emirates is not seeking to join the war, it is prepared to do so
The UAE has not ruled out joining the United States in its war against Iran, a senior Emirati military official told in an interview.
Maj. Gen. Abdul Nasser Al Humaidi said, for now, the country remains firmly focused on defense. But when asked if his country’s military involvement in the war is off the table, Al Humaidi replied, “To be part of that conflict — not necessarily.”
He stressed, however, that the UAE is focused on defending its territory following weeks of a sustained Iranian attack.
“The UAE preserves its right to self-defense upon any aggression that aims at the UAE, and that’s the primary role of the military and armed forces,”
