A week later, the Biden administration removed the Houthis from the terrorist group list when then-State Secretary Antony Blinken was described as “recognizing the terrible humanitarian situation in Yemen.”
Salman Al-Ansari, a prominent geopolitical analyst from Saudi Arabia, told Fox News Digital that “Biden’s early appearance of the Houthis, lifting them from the terror list with nothing in return, emboldened their aggression. The Houthis, an Iranian proxy, have dragged Yemen into chaos, destabilized the region, and attacked global shipping. Trump’s response is a necessary correction to Biden’s Missteps, conveys a clear message that piracy and horror are not subject to any inspection.”

Al-Ansari noted, “Saudi Arabia did its best to convince the U.S. Hoss’ threat, but the Biden administration completely failed Riyadh. The good news is that the legal governments in Saudi Arabia and Yemen have completed heavy moves that can free about 80% of the chyemeni territory. Now counting, diplomacy is preferred over military escalation.”
