'International Disputes'
International Disputes - United Arab Emirates


The UAE's foreign policy, much like its domestic politics, has been defined largely by border disputes and the politics of the individual emirates. Currently the UAE has territorial disputes with three of its immediate neighbors: Iran, Oman and Qatar; in the past, it has clashed with Saudi Arabia as well. 

The most serious such conflict, however, is the long-standing dispute with Iran over three Gulf islands: Abu Musa and the Greater and Lesser Tunbs. Since 1992, this dispute has come to define the UAE's entire relationship with Iran. 

Tehran claims that Britain took the islands from Iran and gave them to the Arabs in the nineteenth century. Iran has now built an airstrip, substantially increased its military presence (from 700 to 4,000 troops), and has opened a university.

The UAE has garnered significant diplomatic support in the region in protesting these Iranian actions. It counters that Arabs from the eastern Gulf littoral have always controlled the islands, and that Iran has no claim to either Abu Musa or the Tunbs.

The islands dispute has also caused serious friction within the UAE.  Abu Dhabi has been careful to maintain some contact with Iran because of the large number of Iranian expatriates in the UAE and because of Iran's proximity. 

Ras al-Khaimah  advocate tough measures against Iran. Dubai, on the other hand, believes that the conflict is unnecessary, and does not want anything to threaten its profitable trade and close cultural links with Tehran. 

Iran is currently Dubai's largest re-export market, accounting for 20-30% of Dubai's trade and providing access to markets in Afghanistan and Central Asia.

United Arab Emirates and Saudi Arabia over 'Shaybah'  row dating back to the 1970s. Shaybah oilfield located in Saudi Arabia’s vast Rub al-Khali desert. Under the agreement, Saudi Arabia dropped its claim to the Buraimi oasis region, while the UAE relinquished a 25-kilometre-long strip of land linking it to Qatar and gave up a large portion of the Shaybah oilfield.
