Kuwaiti ex-minister calls Iran 'real problem'

Former Kuwaiti Minister of Information Sami Al-Nesf has made a pointed statement on regional security, arguing that Arab countries cannot demand support from the Gulf states while refusing to stand with them against regional threats. He singled out Iran as the primary source of instability, declaring, "Iran is the real problem in the region." The comments highlight ongoing tensions within the Arab world regarding the perceived Iranian threat and the conditions for intra-Arab solidarity. Al-Nesf's remarks come amid heightened tensions in the Strait of Hormuz following recent Iranian seizures of commercial vessels.
