EU Seeks Closer Ties with Oman Amid Middle East Conflict
Original: EU–Oman Relations: Brussels’ Quiet Strategic Move Amid a Roaring Conflict

Analysts frame the move as Brussels hedging its regional bets, building ties with a stable Gulf state that maintains open channels to multiple sides, including Iran. The approach signals the EU's effort to secure influence, trade routes and diplomatic leverage without direct confrontation.
Why now: Ongoing Middle East conflict has put a spotlight on the EU's diplomatic manoeuvring in the Gulf.
