US Secretary of State affirms security pact with Saudi Arabia
U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio emphasized that his country is committed to security agreements with Saudi Arabia and must fulfill its commitments to the Kingdom amid ongoing escalation with the Houthi militia in Yemen. He clarified that the United States believes Saudi Arabia has the right to defend itself and that it will stand by the Kingdom if the situation escalates into a confrontation threatening its security. Rubio pointed out that the recent attacks in Yemen are responses to Houthi assaults. He also blamed Iran for some of the Houthi escalation, recalling that freedom of navigation in the Red Sea is a fundamental international and American interest, and that international maritime routes should remain outside the control of armed groups.
