DUBAI – In a bold move, Emirati businessman Khalaf Ahmed Al Habtoor has sent an open letter to US President Donald Trump and Senator Lindsey Graham, expressing his strong opposition to involving Arab states in a potential war with Iran.
Al Habtoor criticized the push from some US officials for Arab countries to attack Iran. He emphasized that the region is being pressured into conflicts without consulting its own leaders.
He stated that Senator Lindsey Graham encouraged Arab nations to strike Iran, but thankfully, countries like the UAE and other Gulf states remain secure.
Al Habtoor warned that risking American lives and soldiers for Israel’s interests is a choice made by Trump and Graham, not by the UAE.

He also highlighted that Senator Graham, while a US lawmaker, acts more in favor of Israel than the American people. He stressed that the UAE does not need American protection and is capable of making its own decisions.
Al Habtoor warned that risking American lives and soldiers for Israel’s interests is a choice made by Trump and Graham, not by the UAE.“While Iran’s threat is real, using Arab nations as fuel for others’ conflicts is unacceptable,” Al Habtoor wrote. He criticized attempts to control Iranian oil and reshape the Middle East, calling such strategies “dangerous and deceptive.”
