    The administration of President Donald Trump is moving forward in a bid to form a new security and political alliance to counter Iranian expansion in the region, US and Arab officials said.
    The White House wants to strengthen cooperation with Gulf Arab states, Egypt and Jordan on missile defense, military training, counter-terrorism and other issues, such as supporting regional economic and diplomatic ties, according to four sources.
    The plan, designed to shape what White House and Middle East officials call an Arab version of NATO or an "Arab NATO" of Sunni Muslim allies, is likely to increase tension between the United States and Iran's Shiite power, which has been increasingly rife since the president took office. Donald Trump Power.
    Several sources said the Trump administration hoped that the alliance, temporarily called the Middle East Strategic Alliance, would be discussed at a summit tentatively scheduled to be held in Washington on October 12 and 13.
    The White House said it was working on the idea of ​​an alliance with "our regional partners now for several months."
    A Saudi source said Saudi officials put forward the idea of ​​a security pact ahead of Trump's last visit to the kingdom last year, where he announced a huge deal to sell arms, but the proposal to form a coalition remained in place.
    Sources from some Arab countries also said they were aware of the resumption of efforts to revive the plan. Officials from other potential participants did not respond to requests for comment.
    "The strategic Middle East alliance will be a bulwark against aggression, terrorism and Iranian extremism, and will establish peace in the Middle East," said a spokesman for the White House National Security Council.
    The spokesman declined to confirm that Trump would host a summit on those dates, and sources cautioned that it was still uncertain whether the security plan would be completed by mid-October.
    Similar initiatives by US governments in a formal alliance with Gulf and Arab allies have failed in the past.
    Washington, Riyadh and Abu Dhabi accuse Iran of destabilizing the region and provoking unrest in some Arab countries, through proxies to Tehran, and increasingly threatening Israel.
    The alliance will focus on the two most influential Gulf states, Saudi Arabia and the UAE, to work closely with Trump to confront Iran.
    It is not clear how the alliance will be able to confront Tehran immediately, but the Trump administration and its Sunni allies have common interests in the conflicts in Yemen and Syria, as well as defending Gulf shipping routes through which most of the world's oil supplies pass.
    "The Americans and their regional allies are fueling tensions in the region under the pretext of ensuring stability in the Middle East," a senior Iranian official told Reuters.
    He added that this approach "will not produce any results, other than" widening the gaps between Iran and its regional allies on the one hand and the Arab countries backed by the United States on the other. "
    One of the biggest obstacles to the planned alliance is the 13-month boycott by Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates, Bahrain and Egypt of Qatar, which hosts the largest US air base in the region. They have accused Qatar of supporting terrorism, which Doha denies.
    While one source said that the US administration is concerned about the possibility of blocking the Gulf dispute for the initiative, the source and an Arab official said Riyadh and Abu Dhabi have assured Washington that the dispute will not be a problem before the new alliance.
    The spokesman denied the National Security Council that the Gulf dispute is an obstacle.
    While Trump continues to implement the "America First" policy, the White House looks forward to removing part of the burden of addressing regional security threats and throwing them at the shoulders of US allies around the world.
    Anwar Gargash, the UAE minister of state for foreign affairs, said Thursday that his country was ready to deploy more troops across the Middle East to confront its adversaries because it believed it could no longer rely on Western allies such as the United States and Britain.
    A source familiar with the plan said that the establishment of a missile defense shield in the region would be among the goals of the alliance, in addition to training to modernize the armies of those countries. For years, the United States and Gulf countries discussed the defense shield without yielding results.
    Tension has grown with Iran since Trump announced in May that the United States would withdraw from a nuclear deal signed in 2015 to curb Tehran's nuclear ambitions.
    Iran on Monday rejected a Trump warning that it would "face consequences that few have experienced in history" if it does not stop threatening the United States.
