Saudi policy's unanswered question
The article addresses the strategic crisis facing Saudi Arabia in managing its regional influence, particularly concerning Yemen and the southern issue. It explains that Saudi Arabia is suffering from weak outcomes of its military and political interventions in Yemen, as the Houthis are expanding their military capabilities and threatening vital areas deep within Saudi territory. Meanwhile, the forces supported by Riyadh have not achieved a decisive victory that satisfies its ambitions. The article also notes that limited American support—restricted to targeting and intelligence—reflects Saudi Arabia's limited ability to impose effective military and political results. Regarding the south, the article highlights Saudi Arabia’s indifferent or opposing stance toward its independence, despite its historical and geographical ties to the region as a fundamental part of its strategy to counter the Houthis. This approach leads to a loss of trust and represents one of the biggest strategic mistakes, potentially exacerbating political turbulence. The article suggests that there is a necessity to review policies, engage in dialogue with the south, and recognize Saudi Arabia’s right to allow the south to determine its future—an approach that serves strategic interests—rather than persist with policies of rejection and containment, which threaten regional unity and security.
