The latest news from Saudi Arabia and the Emirates and the meeting of the foreign ministers of Saudi Arabia, America and the Emirates in order to end the conflict in Yemen

This episode devotes its time to discussing news related to the return of disputes between the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates.
The Yemen file is at the forefront of the factors causing the old/new disagreement between Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman and UAE President Sheikh Mohammed bin Zayed. Since the former concluded a normalization deal with Iran under Chinese sponsorship, it has been moving at an accelerated pace to reach a comprehensive agreement to end the ceasefire in Yemen, while the latter believes that the Ansar Allah Houthi group funded by Tehran cannot be trusted, and that the fight against it must continue. The episode presents the arguments for each party and its strengths and weaknesses, based on the history of the conflict in Yemen since 2015 between the Arab coalition, which includes Riyadh and Abu Dhabi, and the Houthis.

The United States of America has presented an initiative to resolve the Saudi-Emirati dispute, which the US administration of President Joe Biden rejects due to it being between two strategic allies of Washington in the Middle East. US Secretary of State Anthony Blinken, along with his Saudi counterpart, Prince Faisal bin Farhan, and his Emirati counterpart, Sheikh Abdullah bin Zayed, held a tripartite meeting in New York on the sidelines of the United Nations General Assembly meetings, to reach a consensus formula on the Yemeni file between the Saudi and Emirati partners.

Finally, the American newspaper The New York Times indicated in a recent report that the American administration is close to signing a defense agreement with the Saudi side. It is one of 3 conditions that Riyadh had considered as fair compensation for accepting full normalization with Israel. This agreement includes a pledge from the White House to defend Saudi Arabia if it becomes involved in any regional military conflict. The approval of the US Congress appears to be the only obstacle to passing this agreement due to the objections of representatives from the Democratic Party to the human rights record in the Kingdom.
