Dubai billionaire Khalaf Al Habtoor has published an open letter addressed to Donald Trump. “You have placed the GCC countries and the Arab world at the center of a danger they did not choose. Thank God, we are strong and capable of defending ourselves. We have armies and defense systems that protect our nations. But the question remains: who gave you the right to turn our region into a battlefield?” Al Habtoor said.

Prominent Emirati businessman Khalaf Al Habtoor has issued a powerful open letter directed at former U.S. President Donald Trump, criticizing recent geopolitical tensions that have placed the Middle East under growing pressure.
In the letter, Al Habtoor warned that decisions made by global powers are putting the region at risk without the consent of the people who live there.
“You have placed the GCC countries and the Arab world at the center of a danger they did not choose,” he wrote.
Referring to nations within the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC), Al Habtoor emphasized that while these countries are strong and capable of defending themselves, they should not be forced into conflicts created by others.
He continued with a pointed question aimed directly at Trump:
“Thank God, we are strong and capable of defending ourselves. We have armies and defense systems that protect our nations. But the question remains: who gave you the right to turn our region into a battlefield?”
The statement reflects growing frustration across parts of the Middle East, where leaders, analysts, and influential figures are increasingly voicing concern about escalating military tensions and the risk of wider regional Clifton.
