The Gulf Arab states, also called the Arab states of the Persian Gulf, include Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, Bahrain, Qatar, the United Arab Emirates (U.A.E.), and Oman. They are all members of the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC). Iraq is sometimes included in broader geographic definitions of the Gulf Arab region, although it is not a member of the GCC.
