After a series of attacks on Israeli-linked shipping in the Red Sea, the US says it has set up an international coalition to stop the strikes by Yemen’s Ansarullah movement, better known as the Houthis. However, no Red Sea littoral state—including Saudi Arabia—has at least publicly joined the initiative. Neither has the United Arab Emirates (UAE), once a key component of the Saudi-led military intervention in Yemen. To better understand the underlying calculations, Amwaj.media invited three experts to share their views.
