The Iran war has catalyzed a surprising shift in the Middle East, uniting former rivals in support of a peace deal that pressures the Trump administration to negotiate with Tehran. The agreement, reached after Pakistani and Qatari officials' intervention, aims to end hostilities and reopen the vital Strait of Hormuz. Leaders from eight Muslim-majority nations have rallied behind the initiative, contrasting sharply with Israel's opposition. The UAE and Saudi Arabia have notably set aside their rivalry to support the peace process, which reflects a broader disillusionment with U.S. influence in the region. As regional powers reassess their security needs, there are indications of a new alignment forming, with countries like Turkey, Egypt, and Pakistan playing significant roles in mediation efforts. The evolving landscape suggests that Gulf states are increasingly preparing for a future where U.S. support may be less reliable, leading to new alliances and security arrangements in the Middle East.
