The National Security Advisors from the United States, Saudi Arabia, and the United Arab Emirates convened at the White House on March 23. Their discussions focused on addressing strategic issues important to all three nations, with a particular emphasis on countering what they described as "the Iranian regime’s malign influence and provocative behavior."

Senior officials from multiple U.S. departments, including State, Defense, Treasury, and intelligence agencies, participated in this meeting. The leaders committed to holding regular trilateral meetings to create and implement joint strategies aimed at reducing threats to regional security and enhancing peace and prosperity in the Middle East.

An additional session included Afghanistan's National Security Advisor. This discussion centered on how the United States, Saudi Arabia, and the UAE can collaborate with Afghanistan to support its government and establish conditions for a lasting peace agreement.
