United Arab Emirates
It states in this Wikipedia entry that the United Arab Emirates have the most diversified economy in the Middle East and adjacent Africa (under the "Oil and Gas" heading). I believe that the UAE share this distinction with Israel. There is no well accepted measure of economic diversity. However, market complexity could be considered a reasonable measure of what this article is trying to capture regarding the economy of the UAE. This article in the Visual Capitalist indicated that Israel has a an economic complexity ranking in the top 30 in the world:

The UAE is not ranked in the top 30. On the other hand, the Herfendahl-Herschman market concentration index for the UAE is approximately 0.05 versus approximately 0.15 for Israel (Lower purports to indicate less concentration of the market in a few corporate entities.). Scores for the US and Germany are, respectively 0.06 and 0.04. Saudia Arabia has an H-H index of 0.07.

I think that a more accurate statement (under the "Oil and Gas" heading would be something like "......the UAE is nowadays one of the most diversified economies in the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region."
