Trump calls the position of some Middle Eastern countries on Iran semi-neutral

American President of the United States Donald Trump stated that some Middle Eastern countries friendly to Washington are taking a semi-neutral position in the armed conflict between the United States and Israel and Iran.

"When this started, to everyone's surprise, they (Iran) began striking with missiles at sort of semi-neutral countries. They hit Saudi Arabia, Qatar, the UAE, Kuwait, Bahrain," the American leader said in an interview with the radio station WABC.

Iranian authorities have repeatedly stated that Tehran has not attacked any country in the region, and that only U.S. military bases were subjected to attacks.
