Following the recent war involving Iran, the United States, and Israel, Middle Eastern countries are reassessing their security strategies. Analysts say Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) members are exploring new defense partnerships beyond the United States, as the conflict exposed vulnerabilities across the region.

Gulf states have been diversifying defense ties with Europe, Russia, and China, while maintaining relations with the U.S. Researchers note that the goal is not to replace Washington but to strengthen regional balance and resilience against both Iran and Israel. Some countries are also pursuing economic engagement with Tehran to reduce future hostilities.
The U.S. administration has indicated a shift in priorities away from the Middle East, though it continues to support Israel militarily. Analysts believe that if Iran and the U.S. reach a lasting agreement, regional states may increasingly take responsibility for their own security.
