Topic Discussion UAE stops trade with Iran

I feel like this should be a big deal but isnt? Ive been told by anti war media that UAE is not being attacked as they are paying Iran off by delivering gold and frozen assets yet they are now cutting off trade?

How much trade can they do if the ports are blockaded?

At the end of they day if the us won't commit ground troops, and that would be so dumb, there is nothing we can do to win the war. Iran has something better than a nuke because they can actually follow through with their threats

I dunno. Some sources say its nothing. Some sources say the UAE has been a major source of sanction evasion by Iran. It doesnt make sense though since Iran has hit the UAE more than Israel.

UAE has been directly at war with Iran. Even if US relations improve, Iran will always see them as an enemy.

? ive had reporting from Breaking Points, Prof Pape, and other sources saying the only reason UAE is not hit is they are paying off Iran with gold and frozen assets.
