Nowadays on the global stage, the states of the Gulf Cooperation Council: Saudi Arabia, Qatar, the United Arab Emirates, Oman, Bahrain, and Kuwait are shaping a new collective role, in which influence, funding, and humanitarian engagement intersect in powerful ways. Today on the show we're focused on the—at times—complex and nuanced humanitarian role these states play on the global stage. Then turn to an interview with Mamadou Sow, head of the International Committee of the Red Cross's delegation to the Gulf States, to explain how we work with these to support humanitarian action and ensure that the laws of war and the obligations of states engaged in conflict are upheld.
