The United Arab Emirates (UAE) is exploring a new approach or ‘different architecture’ to address longtime conflicts in the Middle East. This comes as the Gulf nation continues to ramp up its diplomatic ties with the United States (US). The UAE leadership contends that its new direction now points towards a more diplomatic resolution of tense regional issues, such as the Iran nuclear deal, and ongoing conflicts in Yemen, Libya, and Syria. The UAE’s expanding relationship with the US is likely to play a significant role in these endeavors, as it looks to leverage this strategic partnership to help establish stability and peace in the region. The details of this new strategy or ‘architecture’ are yet to be defined, but it shows the UAE’s commitment to play a more active role in the regional geopolitics.
