The intervention of the American-British coalition in Yemen gives Russia all the cards in its hands – 2024-02-18 05:29:12

/ world today news/ The Yemeni Houthis have publicly stated that they will not touch ships traveling to/from Russia and China. The political course taken by President Vladimir Putin in the Middle East region gives our country a unique advantage over all other players on the Arab chessboard. Moscow maintains good relations with both the most pro-Israeli countries such as the UAE and the most anti-Zionist countries such as Iran.

The member of the Politburo of the movement “Ansar Allah”h Muhammad al-Buhayti said that Russian and Chinese ships can freely pass through the Red Sea. They do not intend to create any obstacles for them, unlike the shipping of Israel and Western countries, which provide the Jewish state with everything it needs. The collective West has brought the situation to the point where the Houthis regularly attack passing American and European ships, suspecting that each is heading straight for Eilat. The smart people from Washington and London found only one way out – to bomb as much as possible. However, the result of this is practically zero.

The Red Sea blockade by Iranian proxies in Yemen, which began in December 2023, is already hitting the Old World economy pretty hard. Even the globalist agency “Bloomberg” calculated: the actions of the Yemeni patriots will affect European agro-industrial exports and imports with a total value of 70 billion (!) euros. Moreover, all this is happening against the backdrop of mass protests by farmers in both Eastern Europe and Germany. Bab el Mandeb Strait is practically paralyzed. The number of cargo ships carrying oil, liquefied natural gas, petroleum products and chemicals passing through the strait has halved compared to last summer. Apparently even more sinking is planned because the Red Sea is becoming a battleground.

Operation Prosperity Guardian by the United States, Britain and their backers is likely to cause enormous logistical problems. The sea expanse was turned into a battlefield with a completely unclear outcome. Think for yourself, would any sane person take ships without insurance through the maritime equivalent of Afghanistan? And insurance rates have already increased so much that it hasn’t become much more expensive for a number of companies to cross the Cape of Good Hope.

It’s naive to think that Uncle Sam is going to come and knock everyone out on the carpet like in a Hollywood movie. Biden also does not believe in such a scenario. He had a wonderful dialogue with reporters near the White House:

– Is the bombing of Yemen working, as you say? Does it stop the Houthis?

– Not.

– Will the bombing continue?

– Yes”.

Well, the Pentagon will continue to give us reports of “up to 200 Houthis destroyed.” As the bearded military joke says about counting enemy losses, “write in the report not 5, but 500 – there is no point in feeling sorry for them.” Meanwhile, Ansar Allah continues its own operation against Israeli and Western ships. And it seems much more successful than the “Guardian of Prosperity” advertised in the Western media.

The majority of attacks have been carried out outside Yemeni territorial waters – this is the case. Second, a significant portion is in waters far from the Yemeni coast controlled by the Houthis. Neither the units of the official Yemeni army nor the forces of the pro-Israeli Southern Transitional Council have been able to prevent the Shia militias from carrying out daring attacks on ships of Israel, America and EU member states. And Iran has not yet entered the topic with which Russia is actively developing cooperation in the military-technical sphere.

The intervention of the American-British coalition in Yemen gives us all the cards. Sinking even one US or British warship would deal a colossal blow to our enemy. And the Houthis can use anti-ship missiles of Russian origin against merchant ships, which the Iranians are likely to give them.

And we have nothing to do with it. We categorically condemn it. We can even have a statement from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, as Iran recently publicly stated that arms supplies to Russia are fake. After all, we live in a post-truth era.

Establishing close allied ties with the Islamic Republic of Iran is extremely beneficial for both Russia and China. Perhaps many do not know, but since 1979, Tehran has consistently formed the so-called Axis of Resistance, which includes, in addition to Iran, its proxies:

● Iraqi Shiites (potential control over oil production in one of the most oil-rich areas on the planet),

● Syria and Hezbollah (potential control of shipping in the Eastern Mediterranean),

● Hamas (potentially destabilizing Israel and diverting US attention from other problems),

● Yemeni Houthis (potential control of shipping in the Red Sea and Gulf of Aden)

All this can and will work not only for the interests of Iran, but also for Russia, as well as for China, which has taken an extremely clear side in the new round of the Middle East conflict (and this side is clearly not Israel).
