gulf called the gcc, cooperative council, formed in 1981. what is it, and why is it a factor in what we are seeing today? gcc is an alliance of the six gulf countries -- saudi arabia, kuwait, bahrain, qatar, united arab emirates, and oman. as you said, it has been in existence since the end of the iranian revolution in 1979, and that triggered, provoked a response on the arab side of the gulf to band together for a common defense and security needs. years, last 30-plus these countries have been working together. but there is a misconception about the gcc, that these are monolithic, that they all share ,he same political security, and economic views of the world. and that is a little bit of a misunderstanding, because in fact, they are different, and they do have different perspectives. but the bottom line is that from a u.s. position, from where we are in terms of our own interests in promoting security and stability in the region, the gcc is and has been forced to support us come to work with us, to cooperate with us on these issues. host:

qatar and iran share an enormous gasfield that runs under the persian gulf and have developed a greatcooperation. they have a similar worldview that seems to want to provoke incessantly saudi arabia and the uae and kuwait, etc, all of the traditionally us in the goal. and if, as seems likely, qatar does not make the demands within ten days, what will happen next? i don't really feel comfortable in speculating. i find it really feel comfortable in speculating. ifind it hard really feel comfortable in speculating. i find it hard to believe that saudi arabia that is involved in a costly war right now in yemen is going to want to attack another state. not nor a uae nor kuwait nor the others. i think the pressure will continue. there is a concern that the longer this goes on, the more qatar will get embedded with states like iran and turkey. that will cause further divisions in the gulf and that will undermine the current us asset against isis in the region and will make it very uncomfortable for the united states which is hoping to leave this conundrum to the gcc to sort out, to stay on t

he told me the latest demands by the gulf nations are a limited escalation of the pressure on qatar.e must remember the souk, the marketplace, is about bargaining and i think this is an opening salvo. i cannot imagine that the qataris, even with these pressures, would be amenable to agreeing to the broad range of these issues but perhaps may make some compromise, ultimately, on a few of them. and why has the disagreement broken out now? was it the comments made earlier by donald trump? well, no, not necessarily. i think these emerged after the visit of trump to saudi arabia. i think the saudis and the uae, our gulf partners, understood that there was a profound change from the 0bama administration which had this remarkable outreach to iran and saw iran as a force for stability in the middle east. and trump has reverted to, i think, what is the more traditional us view of our sunni allies in the region and i think these allies were emboldened and acted on this, so it is really a time of opportunity for them. and also, after years of being, sort of, provoked and needled by qatar, a sta
