Houthis caution on regional sanctions against Iran
The Houthi movement in Yemen has warned against participating in the implementation of the new American sanctions imposed on Iran. They called on countries not to use these measures as tools to carry out Washington's "unjust" actions against the Iranian people. These statements came after the U.S. Treasury Department announced a broad campaign targeting nearly 60 individuals and entities linked to Iran. The campaign focuses on sectors such as oil, nuclear energy, and missile programs, as well as actions to suspend financial licenses and measures to block access to global markets through technology, digital assets, gold, and aviation. Washington is also attempting to pressure regional countries to sever their economic ties with Tehran, warning that institutions involved in financial transactions supporting Iran could be excluded from the global financial system. Conversely, Iran and its allies consider the sanctions as aimed at economically and politically subjugating them, with concerns that expanding sanctions might impact maritime security and international trade movements in the region, especially in the Strait of Hormuz and Bab al-Mandeb.
