The Role Of Regional External Interventions In Complicating The Crisis In Yemen

Authors : Khirennas Hamza .

Abstract

Many external interventions in Yemen have intensified the conflict, which, in turn, resulted in the addition of new obstacles, especially that the local reality in Yemen is still full of sharp divisions. Meanwhile, Yemenis are still enduring the growing human cost due to the practices of these parties. These overall interventions vary between political, military and ideological ones that affect the general political equilibrium of Yemen. The vision of the intervening states- Iran and Saudi Arabia- is based on their vital interests. These countries try to dominate the region to compete and fight for the center of a pivotal country and strong regional power in the region, taking advantage of the chaos and political instability in Yemen through increasing their interventions and legitimization.
