High tensions are simmering in the Arabian Gulf1, one of the most important strategic locations in the world. These tensions have the potential to lead to a disastrous war and great harm to the world�s economy. In early 2020, the region of the Arabian Gulf witnessed one of the most tense moments in its history when U.S. and Iranian warships drew close to open conflict. Downing of a U.S. drone, attacking bypassing ships, targeting oil production facilities by Iranian Forces, and the assassination of an Iranian military commander by the U.S. military were acts that only made the situation more complicated. A future of uncertainty for the region comes with the absence of a security cooperation mechanism and lack of communication. Stakeholders and rival countries must compromise and open the door for mediators to give a chance and hope for a stable Gulf. Historical initiatives to reduce tensions so far have proved insufficient. Can a new and inclusive initiative gather all the actors involved to make a step forward to guarantee a freer and safer Gulf?
