But if they went in for two different reasons, isn't the challenge that they can't really agree on how to get out for the same reason either? voice-verified

Flavia, if we were just to broaden out where the Middle East is at, at a more broad level. voice-verified

I saw a quote this week in a piece reflecting on the thousand days of war, similar to your own, which said, ultimately, the Middle East is worse off. voice-verified

The region is split. voice-verified

It's more violent. voice-verified

Freedom of navigation has changed forever and prospects for a return to a modicum of stability remain bleak. voice-verified

Would that be your assessment? voice-verified

I think that's one way of looking at it. voice-verified

Flavia, it's a big ask for all of that to settle before we move on. voice-verified

But I do want to delve into that because before... voice-verified

October the 7th there was still there was divisions over political Islam the wars in Yemen and Sudan oil policy the contest for regional influence I mean Saudi Arabia and the UAE already had a lot of issues but instead of course now Israel has become another big problem between the two of them the UAE or Emirati has aligned itself more so and deepened its relationship with Israel voice-verified

Saudi efforts then, on the other hand, they want to balance rival powers and to contain the conflict. voice-verified

How relevant do you think or how influential is the relationship or the lack of it between those two in influencing everything else that goes on in the Middle East? voice-verified

Because we're tending at the moment to focus on Iran and Israel. voice-verified

But when it comes to the UAE and Saudi, are we taking our eye off the ball and how influential that relationship could be? voice-verified

So, we've talked about security and we've talked about diplomacy and we've talked about military, but I do need to talk to you about infrastructure as well because Ras Laffan, Iran's strike on it in Qatar damaged two big LNG terminals and that accounts for about 17% of Qatar's export capacity. voice-verified

Those repairs could take years. voice-verified

Over the past thousand days, I mean, you know, the images of what has happened in gas in the West Bank have been absolutely harrowing. voice-verified

And so I don't just want to focus on physical infrastructure, but social infrastructure across the Middle East as well. voice-verified

Where do you see hope for the region? voice-verified
