## Prediction

Within 24 hours, at least one major Gulf state (likely UAE or Qatar) is expected to publicly reiterate or accelerate calls for a Hormuz security framework, framing it as essential to stabilize regional trade even as Iran restarts ballistic missile production. The messaging will seek to avoid direct confrontation with Tehran while pressing for practical de-confliction mechanisms to calm insurers and importers. This dual track highlights Gulf rulers’ anxiety over being caught between US–Iran escalation and their own economic dependence on open sea lanes. Confirmation would be announced ministerial-level consultations or hosting offers; denial would be a hard rhetorical pivot toward full alignment with US coercive measures and abandonment of talks.

## Drivers

- Reports that Iran has restarted ballistic missile production amid planned Hormuz talks
- Sharp decline in Hormuz tanker traffic
- Dependence of Gulf monarchies on uninterrupted oil exports and foreign investor confidence
