RNA - "The anti-Tehran alignment of Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates (UAE), and Bahrain at the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland is a strategic mistake," Amir Abdollahian wrote on his Twitter account while condemning the joint rhetoric by the three countries against Iran in Davos.

The Iranian parliament's speaker said that don’t forget that in difficult days of Saddam’s invasion to Kuwait "we gallantly stood beside our Arab neighbors and the people of Kuwait".

He reminded the Persian Gulf states how they were manipulated by American government in 1980s and 1990s.

“While the White House and Mossad take advantage of you as if you were disposable tissue, we honor our neighbors and fellow Muslims eternally,” he pointed to the commonalities shared by Iran and the Arab states of the Persian Gulf.

The Persian Gulf Arab officials used the World Economic Forum in Davos on Wednesday to slam Iran for what they called was its destabilizing behavior in the region, taking advantage of Tehran’s absence at the annual event.
