RT Seyed Mohammad Marandi Iran protests Gulf Union Bahrain protests anti-government protests Bahraini regime US arms sales Bahrain US arms arrive bloody crackdown Sunni Shia Decaying dictatorship shored-up by Gulf Union

In Iran, protests backed by the state have been organised against plans to form a European Union-style bloc amongst the Gulf states. Two key American allies, Saudi Arabia and Bahrain would be the first Arab Gulf nations to sign an agreement. Iran has called the idea a U.S.-backed plot to see Bahrain become part of Saudi Arabia. Bahrain has seen anti-government protests for more than a year, with fears now the potential union could strengthen the position of the Sunni rulers over a largely Shia population. Professor Seyed Mohammad Marandi, from the University of Tehran, says it's the Saudi royal family, together with Washington that will benefit.
