Houthis Demand $51B
Saudi efforts to negotiate with the Houthis face an obstacle: the group is demanding $51 billion in compensation for damage caused by the war and blockade, as well as Riyadh’s recognition of it as Yemen’s de facto ruler. According to Saudi officials, Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman refuses to enter full-fledged negotiations without battlefield gains that would give the kingdom leverage, but fears that sending additional troops could lead to more deaths and provoke domestic anger. Experts warn that Saudi Arabia’s military options are limited, while the financial demands could leave the kingdom vulnerable to repeated blackmail.
