Gulf states are facing economic challenges as the US-Iran crisis continues, with the Strait of Hormuz blockade impacting energy exports and tourism. Despite a fragile ceasefire, uncertainty looms over the region's economic recovery and diversification efforts. Countries like Qatar have halted liquefied natural gas production, and many Gulf nations expect economic contraction this year. Analysts warn that prolonged instability could hinder the Gulf's ambitions to attract talent and investment, while the US's role in negotiations remains uncertain, leaving Gulf states vulnerable to Iran's influence.

The United Nations warns that the war in the Middle East could erase the economic growth of Arab countries from last year and lead to a severe contraction of the Iranian economy. A report from the United Nations Development Programme indicates that the region's GDP is expected to decline by 3.7% to 6.0%, resulting in losses of approximately $120 billion to $194 billion, which could exceed the entire economic growth of the region by 2025. The report also shows that Iran's GDP may decline by 8.8% to 10.4%, pushing 3.5 million to 4.1 million people into poverty, with the poverty rate potentially rising to 41%
