Riyadh's stance on Houthis talks
The article relates to Saudi Arabia's policy towards Houthi attacks on the Kingdom's oil and military facilities. It notes a prevailing sense of hesitation and delay in directly responding to the latest Houthi escalation, despite Riyadh's public rejection of the assaults. It is believed that Saudi Arabia prefers to wait and avoid immediate escalation at this time in order to reduce the risks of provoking Iran and to enhance the prospects for negotiations, especially since talks with the Houthis and regional parties have come to a halt. Meanwhile, Saudi Arabia continues to build regional and military alliances to counter the threats. Additionally, the report indicates that the Houthi escalation is part of a broader context of a naval blockade announced by the group against Saudi Arabia. It is likely that the expected Saudi response could be military if the escalation persists, with the possibility of a full-scale ground war if the group does not withdraw, amid warnings of heightened tensions and widespread conflict in the region.
