Sharjah 24 – WAM: Mohammed bin Ahmed Al Yamahi, Speaker of the Arab Parliament, has called on national, regional, and international parliaments to issue a clear condemnation of what he described as “blatant Iranian attacks” against Arab countries.

Call to uphold sovereignty and international law

Speaking at the 152nd General Assembly of the Inter-Parliamentary Union in Istanbul, he urged rejection of any actions that violate sovereignty or threaten regional security, stressing the need to reinforce international law and accountability.

Warning over regional security risks

Al Yamahi said the recent attacks cannot be seen as isolated incidents, but rather as a direct threat to the security and stability of Arab countries, particularly in the Gulf region, including risks to maritime routes.

Call for inclusive negotiations

He also stressed that any future negotiations to address escalation must include affected Arab states as key partners to ensure transparency, sustainability, and protection of their security interests.
