One of the key recommendations made in the 16th conference of the Emirates Centre for Strategic Studies and Research (ECSSR) was to turn the Gulf Cooperation Council into a confederation similar to the European Union.
Forming a confederation would allow the GCC to better face economic, political, cultural, and security related challenges, but time does not work in favour of the slow steps taken by the GCC's march towards integration and cooperation.
Unlike recommendations made by many Arab summits, this recommendation was not left unattended. A roadmap has been drawn up to achieve this goal, which has now become a necessity that suits the economic, political and security developments in the Arab world in particular, and the world in general.
Development is a combination of affordability. If the development is successful then automatically theories also work themselves so in my opinion that time is not for applying theories but to workout towards the success. No-doubt politics role is a backbone of country's progress. I hope that this Gulf configuration will prove to be good for dubai economy and its way towards success.
