Iran UAE row escalates at BRICS NSA meeting in New Delhi

A BRICS National Security Advisers meeting in New Delhi turned tense after Iran and the United Arab Emirates exchanged strong political accusations over regional security concerns. The discussion, chaired by India’s National Security Advisor Ajit Doval, was intended to focus on cooperation in maritime safety and counterterrorism, but quickly exposed deep disagreements within the group on West Asia dynamics. Iran raises concerns over regional strikes and external involvement Iran’s delegation raised allegations linking recent regional strikes to external military coordination, suggesting that operations affecting Iranian interests were enabled through logistical and strategic support networks in the Gulf region. Tehran argued that such developments have increased risks for civilians and undermined stability across key transit zones. Strait of Hormuz remains central pressure point The Strait of Hormuz once again emerged as the most sensitive flashpoint in the discussion. Iranian representatives warned that continued military escalation near the waterway threatens global energy flows and could destabilize shipping routes that carry a significant share of the world’s oil supply. The issue highlighted how maritime security concerns are increasingly tied to broader geopolitical rivalries in the region. UAE pushes back and defends its position The UAE rejected the allegations and reiterated that it does not support or participate in hostile operations against any state. Emirati officials maintained that the country itself remains exposed to regional security threats and emphasized the need for de-escalation rather than blame-based diplomacy. Past BRICS discussions had already seen similar disagreements without consensus outcomes. BRICS unity tested by West Asia fault lines The confrontation underscored growing strain within BRICS as it expands its membership and geopolitical scope. While India has pushed for the bloc to act as a platform for dialogue and stability, persistent conflicts between member and partner states are limiting progress on unified security statements. The Iran–UAE exchange reflected how regional rivalries are increasingly shaping multilateral forums meant for cooperation rather than confrontation.
