Ukraine finds new role as protector of US, Gulf allies amid Iran war
AI Summary
In March 2026, Ukraine has emerged as a protector of the US and Gulf allies against Iranian drone attacks. After the US, under President Trump, ceased military and financial aid to Ukraine, it requested Kyiv's assistance in defending its Gulf bases from potential Iranian retaliation. President Zelenskyy agreed to send military experts to the Gulf and is negotiating drone sales with Gulf states, as multiple countries have requested Ukraine's defensive support. Ukraine aims to leverage this support to ensure continued assistance for its own defense. Russia's alleged assistance to Iran in targeting US assets in the Gulf could potentially realign Washington with Kyiv and its European allies. Ukraine also benefits from Gulf stability, as disruptions to oil markets impact global prices.
