<p>The UK remains very concerned by the tensions in the Gulf. The Prime Minister,
Foreign Secretary and other Ministers continue to engage with our Gulf friends to
encourage de-escalation and support Kuwait's mediation efforts. On 4 July, the Prime
Minister called His Royal Highness The Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman of Saudi Arabia,
and His Royal Highness Crown Prince Mohammed bin Zayed Al Nahyan of the United Arab
Emirates to reiterate the need for all sides to take urgent steps to de-escalate the
situation and restore Gulf Cooperation Council unity. The Foreign Secretary most recently
visited the region on 7-9 July to deliver the same message.</p>
