SAUDI INTERVENTION AFTER ARAP URISINGS PROCESS IN YEMEN AND SAUDI IRAN TENSION

Abstract

Yemen was one of the few countries that needed to reach a positive conclusion during the 2011 Arab Uprisings. However, due to the air operation launched by Saudi Arabia in March 2015, the process was interrupted and the country fell into a deeper crisis. In some interpretations of the crisis that Yemen has fallen into, the dominant view is that Saudi Arabia has instrumentalized the developments in Yemen for its own domestic policy in line with the regional goals of America and Israel. However, after the uprisings, the developments in Yemen were presented to the public as the Houthis, one of the parties to the internal conflict in Yemen, trying to take over Yemen as ‘Iran’s proxy’ and that Saudi Arabia was fighting against Iran’s sectarian expansion in Yemen. This article aims to explain the role of Saudi Arabia in the political crisis that Yemen, which was expected to achieve success as a result of the 2011 Arab Uprisings, has fallen into, by using the historical sociology method. This article will argue that Saudi Arabia, which deepened the crisis in Yemen with its airstrikes in 2015, triggered this crisis because it wanted to prevent possible throne fights in the near future and to secure the future kingdom of Crown Prince Mohammed Bin Salman (MBS), and that it even used the sectarian and geopolitical conflict it had with Iran as a tool for this effort. Therefore, this article aims to explain how the Saudi Kingdom instrumentalizes Yemeni politics for the design of its own domestic politics in line with the Middle East politics of the US and Israel.
