    Sue Mi Terry “Now is not the time to lift sanctions, either. Now, in fact, is the time to double down. If Biden wants to prevent North Korea from acting out, he needs to first provide the government with new incentives to talk-and that means new restrictions Washington can use as carrots. Biden, in other words, needs to take North Korean policy off autopilot and launch a proactive effort to deter Pyongyang. Otherwise, he risks encouraging an already emboldened Kim to stage a major provocation.” 10 hours ago

    Christopher Cavoli “Russians don't have the numbers necessary to do a strategic breakthrough. More to the point, they don't have the skill and capability to do it, to operate at the scale necessary to exploit any breakthrough to strategic advantage. They do have the ability to make local advances and they have done some of that.” 11 hours ago

United Arab Emirates involvement in the Yemen conflict

Page with all the IPSEs stored in the archive related to the Context United Arab Emirates involvement in the Yemen conflict.
The IPSEs are presented in chronological order based on when the IPSEs have been pronounced.

“Recent Houthi advances in and around Marib were posing a growing threat to [the UAE's] interests; this led the UAE to push the [UAE-backed] Giants Brigades to move from the west coast, where they are based, and to confront Houthi advances. The UAE was careful not to lose face, but I would expect that in the future, they will try to avoid direct and large scale confrontation, as much as possible, between militias it supports and the Houthis. It will try to continue focusing on building influence in the south, and avoid confrontation with the Houthis. But that is a difficult balance to strike.”

“The situation is becoming more dangerous because the nature of weapons being used in the attacks is becoming more deadly. The Houthis are trying to bring pressure to the Saudi-UAE coalition to bring things to a favorable close. The only way this [conflict] is going to be resolved is if the Saudi, the Emirates and Houthis sit directly to together and work things out. There isn't any alternative because neither side has been able to gain an advantage over the other.”

“The headquarters of international companies in the UAE will be targets of attacks in the coming period. We hit specific and important targets in the Emirate of Abu Dhabi with a number of ballistic missiles, as well as sensitive targets in the Emirate of Dubai with a number of Samad-3 drones. The Yemeni armed forces confirm that the UAE enemy state will remain unsafe as long as the tools of the Israeli enemy remain in Abu Dhabi and Dubai, launching aggression against our dear country.”

“There's a difficult dilemma facing the Emirati authorities now. They are increasingly under threat from the Houthis, but at the same time … we've had a pretty extensive military campaign in Yemen and rather than reduce the missile threats to the GCC states, what we've seen instead is an increase in that threat. If the UAE decides to target the Houthis more aggressively, that would be stoking tensions further and triggering a downwards spiral. It's going to have to be something that goes beyond just purely defensive military posture … It will have to involve diplomacy, efforts to increase the resilience of critical civilian and energy infrastructure in the country.”

“The attack may have been prompted by recent advances made by a UAE-backed militia in Yemen, but this is unlikely to be the only - or perhaps not even the main - reason. The attack against Abu Dhabi also served as a dire warning by Iran to the UAE. The United States has been pressuring the UAE to better enforce Iran sanctions as nuclear talks continue. Depending on how the JCPOA [Iran nuclear deal] talks play out and on the UAE's own behaviour, more such attacks may be carried out against the country.”
