Experts discuss Egypt's future Yemen role
The upcoming Egyptian military intervention, alongside Saudi Arabia against the Houthis, focuses on safeguarding the Gulf borders and the Red Sea passages, especially vital straits like Bab al-Mandab. This comes after President Abdel Fattah el-Sisi's decision to seek authorization to defend Saudi Arabia. Experts emphasize that the move will be defensive in nature, subject to careful study in accordance with the constitution, and coordinated with the National Defense Council. The goal is to protect Egyptian national security and the interests of the Suez Canal. The intervention is also viewed as a test of Egypt's ability to balance its strategic interests while avoiding escalation of regional conflicts. It is reinforced that any military operations will remain limited and tied to military and diplomatic contexts.
