A study published by the Yemen and Gulf Center for Studies revealed that the Houthi militia is looking for an economic deal in order to adopt the armistice option again. He explained that this time the Houthis are looking for this deal with Saudi Arabia.
The study, prepared by researcher Ahmed Aliba - an expert at the Al-Ahram Center for Political and Strategic Studies - indicated that Riyadh cannot accept a political deal that does not include security arrangements to stop the armed escalation in Yemen, and this is rejected by the Houthi militia, which sees this deal as equivalent to stopping the war with Riyadh. . He explained that "the Houthis are only looking for an economic deal with Riyadh."
The study confirmed that the peace process in Yemen is complex and distant, explaining that the current Yemeni situation will continue as a temporary, partial contract that does not amount to political initiatives or a comprehensive solution, because the dynamics of local, regional and international interactions do not help produce a clear road map.
The study confirmed that there is a Yemeni public opinion confirming the impossibility of the Houthis making any concessions.
The Yemen and Gulf Center for Studies made it clear that in light of the multiplicity of political, security and humanitarian dilemmas, Yemen will remain in the cycle of reproducing crises. Pointing out that the picture of the future of resolving the Yemeni crisis appears bleak, especially since the conflict indicators indicate that the parties have not yet reached the stage of military exhaustion, and he does not believe that this stage is about to end, as the parties still possess tactical and military capabilities.
According to researcher Ahmed Aliba, there is no horizon for the possibility of a political, economic, and security path that constitutes a common denominator for all parties, and restores consideration for state institutions, from the central bank to the army to the government, in addition to the factor of sustaining the crisis in Yemen, which may be a new dilemma, in light of policy of fait accompli.
