Resolution relies on a consensus of credible reporting rather than an official diplomatic record or named authority, requiring judgment to determine whether informal encounters (such as a brief handshake or exchange of words versus merely being in the same room) qualify as a meeting. Additionally, while the rules specifically define Gulf Cooperation Council members, they do not explicitly define what 'another country' is relative to, which could cause confusion if the meeting occurs in a third-party country versus the United States, Russia, or defined Gulf states. If no qualifying meeting occurs before the deadline of December 31, 2026, the market resolves accordingly.
