The mobilization of military force brings tensions to a boiling point. The UAE responds by mobilizing their own troops to the Musandam border, ostensibly to protect Emirati territory. The UAE condemns your actions as Omani aggression, but seems wary of engaging due to your international backers.
| Suggest the Sultan invades the UAE | Clearly they will not back down. It is best to act pre-emptively and gain a military edge. |
| Suggest ceding the territory | It is only half of Musandam, you will retain some access to the Strait, and you will avoid any further confrontation with your wealthier, powerful neighbor. |
| Request a meeting | Invite the Omani ambassador to the UAE and the Minister of Foreign Affairs of the UAE, in the hope that another diplomatic meeting can settle the conflict without war. |
| Suggest the Sultan sends an envoy | The envoy should represent the Sultan to the UAE's President or Minister of Foreign Affairs to attempt to bring an end to the conflict before it escalates into war. |
