Abstract

The new world order has caused the Persian Gulf region to become the competition scene among big players for influence and power constraint of their potential global rivals. In parallel to this conflict, there are other regional ones, in which the struggle for local hegemony has formed two large blocs dividing the states in the area. However, the new relationships make this great sea coastal countries feel increasingly unsafe, seeking new alliances or facing situations of tension, increasing risks of conflict exponentially.
