The problem for the Kingdom is that simply “correcting” the Qatari position cannot change the political trajectory within the region – particularly in Syria and Egypt. Moreover, Saudi Arabia’s imposition of its preferred policies on the GCC, together with the possibility of sanctions on Qatar, risks jeopardizing all that the GCC (which already has fallen into political decline in the wake of the Arab Spring) has achieved over the past 33 years.
沙特王国的问题在于，简单地“纠正”卡塔尔的立场无法改变地区内的政治轨迹——特别是叙利亚和埃及。此外，沙特阿拉伯将其自身偏好的政策强加于CCC，并且可能对卡塔尔采取制裁，这有可能危害到GCC在过去33年中取得的成就。（自阿拉伯之春爆发以来，GCC便走上了政治衰落之路。）
