Yeah right. Considering how often our interests do not align, frak this. We will be absolutely idiots to concede an "ironclad" guarantee. Let the rich kids spend their money and build/hire themselves an army.


Good thinking ...

Even if the rich kids decided to hire the Chinese army? Because that looks like the other option according to the article.

What would an ironclad guarantee look like if that were an agreement between UAE/SA and China? I mean if it is as simple as China telling Iran and Yemen not to attack UAE and SA, that seems like a good way to garner investment from countries like UAE and SA.
