Geopolitical Factors Affecting Collective Security in the Persian Gulf Region

The Persian Gulf is surrounded by eight countries, including the countries of the Islamic Republic of Iran, the United Arab Emirates, Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Kuwait, Bahrain, Iraq, and Oman. Due to the existence of this Gulf of God, which is known as the Persian Gulf, these countries in the region are far away from poverty and some of them have even become the richest countries, which wealth includes the fossil energy of oil and gas, which has taken the region out of normal conditions. And it has become a geopolitical region and the interference of great powers in this region is fully seen. And the existence of these conditions requires that these countries join together to converge instead of diverging and fighting, and to maintain the security of their resources and independence, they must reach a collective security and change the conditions to their advantage by creating an organization together.
