Subject: those big investments Trump touted?
Seems the Gulf states are thinking they may need that money to cover war losses instead.

This article might give a hint about *which* investments are being rethought.

Gulf states could review overseas investments to ease financial strains caused by Iran war

Pressure on the Gulf states’ budgets could cause them to review their overseas investments and future commitments as they consider options to ease the financial strain caused by the US-Israeli war against Iran.

The Gulf states had pressed Trump to hold off on an attack and pursue a diplomatic solution with Iran, but have since borne the brunt of the Islamic republic’s retaliation.

Khalaf al-Habtoor, a prominent Emirati businessman, reflected Gulf frustrations about being dragged into a war triggered by the US and Israel in a social media post addressed to Trump.

“A direct question: Who gave you the authority to drag our region into a war with #Iran? And on what basis did you make this dangerous decision?” he said on X. “Did you calculate the collateral damage before pulling the trigger?”
