To keep your balance, you must keep moving.
There are rumors that Turkey and Oman have reached a preliminary agreement on setting up a Turkish naval base in Oman. It comes at the time when Oman feels threatened by ever-growing Emirati dominance in the region. Oman feels surrounded. The Arabs are saying that the agreement goes even further and includes a second land base right at the border of Oman and Yemen.
Oman already has a British base and I believe a US one too. Those came about after the Qatar blockade when Saudi Arabia and the UAE put their greedy eyes on the $300 billion Qatari sovereign fund. It spooked Kuwait and Oman. I think Oman knows well that the Trump administration was backing the psycho MBS at that time and now wants the Turkish military bases as an additional security blanket.
I also believe the UAE led military campaign in North Yemen and its capture of the Socotra island is not sitting well with the Omani Sultanate. At the moment, the relationship between Oman and the UAE are getting colder.
And today the Turkish defense minister said that Turkey will hold the UAE accountable at right place and time for its destructive actions in the Middle East.
