  • Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates are projecting a new confidence. And it no longer just has to do with oil. They are trying to shake off old dependencies and forge new alliances. It's a delicate balancing act that places them between the US and China -- and at the center of a changing world.

    In complete report. Qatar was an old mediator in the region but the report didn't cover their role. Also, the top three importers of oil from the UAE and Saudi Arabia are China, Japan and South Korea, respectively, but apparently, they didn't want to mention South Korea and Japan because they are allies. Misleading reports as usual from DW.

As a Saudi, I find it quite interesting how we are framed in your media. anything good for us means something bad for your countries (mostly western ones). what is the problem with the Gulf region championing peace and stability in our corner of the world? a good human would be happy to see less war and suffering.. and you guys sound increasingly just bitter to be frank.

      There is no free military support. It is all weapons that are paid for, and no single US soldier ever protected any Gulf country. In fact, when houthis that the west support, threw missiles at Saudi Arabia, the United States said it will withdraw its single patriot anti missile battery from Saudi Arabia and also block further sales of anti air attacks weapons. That's one of the many reasons why Saudis are industrializing very quickly right now and focusing on self manufacturing of their own weapons at the moment. So in reality, there were no security guarantees and it was just words for the most part.

The problem is that China makes most of the maps and globes and purposely shows Taiwan as part of China which of course it is NOT. Same goes for India, many of these western companies cater to China to avoid a reaction but that is bad for reputation.

    10 years left for oil as THE COMMODITY. It will just be another commodity. Battery energy density is increasing by around 7 percent every year. So in a decade it will double. Price likewise is falling at the same rate. Lithium is not even rare. Prices are down 80%.

    • @alizainal9057

      “Loyalty allowances to the people”… the only gulf state that hands out monthly allowances to it’s citizens is Kuwait, and it is the least developed and economically diversified gulf state out of the rest. Yes the gulf states have very generous welfare states with free education and higher education, free health care, no taxes, heavily subsidized food products, heavily subsidized housing costs, and many other benefits, but they do not hand out monthly allowances… only Kuwait does that.
      Additionally, you mentioned that battery energy density is increasing by around 7% a year… well guess who is building one of the biggest battery manufacturing and recycling plants in the world, Saudi Arabia and UAE… and they are planning to export it globally. They are going to become powerful players in this market too.
      Also, Saudi Arabia possesses around $2.5 trillion worth of untapped mineral resources like gold, copper, and zinc, which they are planning to export and also use for domestic manufacturing. UAE is rich in non-energy mineral resources too.
      The economies of the gulf states today are heavily diversified into many different sectors and are no longer as reliant on oil and gas as they once were. Today only 1% of Dubai’s economy is made of of oil, and 15% of the entire UAE economy is oil, which used to be 30% 10 years ago. Saudi Arabia’s GDP is 40% oil today, it used to be 50% ten years ago. Although these numbers are still big, they will continue dropping rapidly in the future as the gulf states continue to develop and diversify away from oil.
      Government revenues are still mostly made up of oil but it’s share will drop rapidly once the gulf start selling the alternative commodities that they are tapping into like battery manufacturing, EV manufacturing, mineral resource mining, petrochemical manufacturing, tourism, and more. Additionally, a huge portion of the gulf state’s oil wealth is part of sovereign wealth funds that are being invested into many international companies around the world, and it is growing rapidly over time. The Saudi sovereign wealth fund known as PIF is expected to reach $2 trillion by 2030. This will be a huge source of government revenue in the future which is completely independent from oil.
      It is also important to note that oil itself is not going anywhere anytime soon. Many 3rd world countries in Africa and Asia will be heavily reliant on oil for their development in the future and therefore they will have to become major importers of oil, so the Gulf states are planning to sell lots oil to these countries when the west moves away from oil. China has a massive and growing petrochemical industry but it has very little oil, so China will continue to buy lots of oil from the gulf to supply its petrochemical industry. The gulf is also building their own petrochemical industry as I stated earlier. Aviation and rocket manufacturing industries are growing rapidly and they require oil for fuel since renewable energies are too weak to sustain them, so the gulf will continue to supply these industries with oil. So oil will continue to be an important and profitable resource in the long term.
      The gulf monarchies have survived for over 1,500 years ruling over different territories over time, while all other monarchies in the world have either fallen or surrendered all of their political power. This is because the gulf monarchies are very adaptable and are not afraid of change, and they will most likely survive for a long time ahead. They have always enjoyed support from the majority of their people, and not simply because of the generous welfare states that the people enjoy, but also because their societies are extremely safe, orderly, diverse, with many job and business opportunities, a society that is rapidly developing and changing for the benefit of everyone, and a population that can enjoy ample amounts of economic freedom. Why would they want to overthrow a government that is upholding all of these things? This whole idea that the people of the gulf are loyal to their monarchies simply because they are being “bribed” with oil money is totally inaccurate. The people have always supported their monarchs way before oil and way before they became wealthy. And it’s because their leaders have always governed well. Jordan and Morocco are both monarchies but they are much poorer than the gulf states and have much smaller welfare systems, yet they are still very stable, they did not suffer much at all from the Arab spring and they enjoy support from most of their people. In fact, the Arab spring only overthrew republic dictatorship governments, not a single monarchy was overthrown. The people do not desire a democracy because why have a democracy when your leadership is running your society well? Having a democracy in the gulf will ruin everything, it will open the doors for extremist religious people to take over. We have seen what a democracy has done to other countries in the region… but people in the west never learn and they still think that democracy is a one size fit all system, and that it always works, well it doesn’t always work. Sometimes other systems work better for some countries.
