Dr. Kamran Karmi, a researcher of Saudi Arabia and the Arabian Peninsula issues, about Washington’s purpose in starting these attacks on Tasnim News Agency said: In fact, according to the statements of US Secretary of State Anthony Blanken during his regional trip to West Asia, the alleged goal of the Americans is to restore security and stability to the Red Sea. It was mentioned. Maintaining Washington’s control over the Red Sea as one of the strategic waterways at the global level is very important, in addition to the security of international waterways both for America’s allies, that is, those who are involved in these tensions, such as Saudi Arabia, and for other actors who use the Red Sea as a place for fleets to pass through. is their maritime and commercial, it is very important, therefore, from the beginning of the announcement of the ban on the traffic of Zionist ships and other countries to the ports of occupied Palestine from the Red Sea route by the Yemeni army, America was pressured by its regional allies, why did they not react to this challenge? It doesn’t.
Kerami continued: So the Americans both to preserve their lost prestige as a great power and with the aim of being the second front of tensions in the region. parallel to the war in Gaza, they made these moves and attacked targets in Yemen with the support of England, however, it seems that the Biden government does not want the tensions in the West Asian region will intensify and the existing crises will get out of control with the formation of a regional war, as a result, Washington decided on a limited and specific tactical operation to some facilities, bases and airports, which is the main focus of Ansarullah inside Yemen, in order to achieve two goals fulfill the original.
Ceasefire in Gaza, the key to reducing tension in Bab al-Mandab
This researcher of the issues of the Arabian Peninsula in response to whether this The operation will reduce or increase tensions, he emphasized: Almost based on the announcements, statements and comments that the Yemeni authorities have made since the beginning of the Gaza war, the main source of the developments that are happening now in the Red Sea is the aggression by Israel in Gaza.
According to Kerami, due to the ongoing peace negotiations between Saudi Arabia and Yemen, which have not yet reached a definitive conclusion, the Yemeni side is also seeking to exploit the achievements of this operation at the negotiating table and increase its bargaining power. It is with Saudi Arabia to turn the fragile peace process into a definite and definite achievement. And Bab al-Mandab emphasized from the resistance axis: Iran and the resistance groups today can send the message to America and other great powers that they have the ability to change the rules of the game at the regional level, this change of the game goes back to a fundamental paradigm and that balance and Achieving the balance of the two elements of economy and trade with security and stability at the regional and international levels, so it can be said that this operation has near and distant goals that are showing up in the fluid and unstable conditions of the region.
Karami said about the outlook and future of the recent crisis in the Red Sea and Yemen: Considering that the operations of the United States and the United Kingdom were mainly media oriented and aimed at sending a message and showing determination. It is considered to be more of a reflection of a strategic threat and not a threat to redefine the field scene in Yemen, in the sense that the Yemeni army, especially the groups and currents supporting the resistance inside Yemen, have achieved significant achievements in the field due to the eight years of war with the Arab coalition and in the conditions Now, with the display of power in the Red Sea, they will be recognized as a political, military and social reality in the field scene of this country more than in the past.
He continued: This operation, rather than being able to affect Yemen’s internal equations, is more caused by the actions and reactions of regional and international actors over a reorganization of the regional and global order, and in the meantime, regional actors, especially resistance groups, seek to send this message. are that the American-centered order has collapsed and Americans must accept the realities of a multi-polarized world in which the Middle East issues will not move toward resolution without paying attention to the role of these local actors.
Kerami said in the end: This Red Sea campaign is more than having an impact on the internal equations of Yemen, it is a show of power in the strategic waterway that in the coming years The two axes of the Black Sea and the Taiwan Strait will account for most of the actors’ actions and reactions.
