Iran's Parliament Speaker Cites Neighboring Outreach for Regional Security Shift

Ghalibaf announced on social media that these overtures follow U.S. actions he described as risking allies' security through bullying and disregard for their interests in favor of Israel.

He argued that only a homegrown, independent regional order can bring true peace.

The remarks, covered by Al Jazeera and Al Arabiya, signal potential reassessments by Gulf states of U.S. guarantees amid tensions, aligning with Iran's push for self-reliant arrangements in the Persian Gulf and recent talks in Iraq.
