YEMEN’DE ÇATIŞMALI SÜREÇ VE DİNAMİKLERİ

Öz

Bu makalede, farklı tarihsel gelenekten gelen farklı siyasi yapıların 1990’da birleştiği Yemen Cumhuriyeti’nde devam eden çatışmaların yapısal sebepleri analiz edilmiştir. Çatışmalar Arap isyanlarından çok daha önce başlamış fakat Arap isyanları sonrası şiddetlenerek devam etmiş ve 2015’te ABD desteği ve Suudi Arabistan ile 10 Arap ülkesinin askeri müdahaleleriyle uluslararası hale gelmiştir. Çalışmada, Yemen'in son elli yılına damgasını vurmuş devrik Devlet Başkanı Ali Abdullah Salih’in 2017 yılında Husiler tarafından öldürülmesine kadar geçen süre ele alınmıştır. Bu bağlamda, çalışmada ileri sürülen düşünce Yemen’de yaşanılan Husiler- Yemen Hükümeti arasındaki çatışmaların bir mezhep savaşı olmadığı, Arap isyanları ile başlamadığı, anlaşmazlıkların ve kırılmaların tarihsel olarak çok önceki süreçlere dayandığıdır. Bu görüşü desteklemek amacıyla sürekli farklılaşan çıkarlara göre değişen farklı grupların birbirleriyle kurdukları iş birlikleri incelenmiştir.

CONFLICTING PROCESS IN YEMEN AND ITS DYNAMICS

Öz

In this article, the structural reasons for the Republic of Yemen's ongoing conflicts, where various political structures from different historical traditions were united in 1990, are analyzed. The clashes started long before the Arab uprisings but continued intensely after the Arab revolts and became international in 2015 with the USA's support and the military intervention of Saudi Arabia and 10 Arab countries. In the study, the discussion comprises the period until the assassination of the ousted President Ali Abdullah Saleh by the Houthis in 2017, who left his mark on Yemen's last fifty years. In this context, the idea put forward in the study is that the conflicts between the Houthis and the Yemeni Government in Yemen are not a sectarian war, they did not start with the Arab revolts, and the disagreements and ruptures are based on historically much older processes. In order to support this view, the cooperation between different groups, which are constantly changing according to current interests, has been examined.
