The United Arab Emirates began a series of activities as from April 1992 to expand its territorial differences with Iran (the only non-Arab State of the Persian Gulf), originally arguing about ownership of Abu Musa Island, expanding the disputes to include islands of Great Tunb and small Tunb and which were returned to Iran, according to an Anglo-Iranian-Sharjah agreement which was signed as a Understanding Memorandum in November 1971. Since then, Abu Dhabi has begun extensive propaganda against Iran and has asked the dignitaries to visit the UAE to support its territorial claims. From the Iranian points of view the operational difficulties arising from the terms of the 1971 Memorandum can be settled peacefully through mutual negotiations, with regard to Iran’s established rights of sovereignty over these islands are not negotiable. Moreover with regard to Iran’s historical and legal rights of sovereignty on the mentioned islands, we will attempt in this study to show the nature and aims of the United Arab Emirates continuous propaganda to build territorial disputes with Iran, in order to attribute Arabic identity to the three islands and by aggravating these disputes with Iran to access these islands to Emirates territory.
