Yemen Conflict and the Role of the IGOs and the NGOs in the Yemen Conflict

The government is in shambles, but the effort to regain control of the country is underway and moving in the right direction. The wide variety of crops that are grown, a limited amount is actually sold for a profit and the majority of their budgeting comes from the different international and foreign programs. Yemeni’s, however, are a proud and religious group and have many of the same social segregation, customs and courtesies as other Arab countries. Due to the unrest of the militias and “terrorist” groups within the country, their military is unable to effectively grow, train and receive the more updated equipment other countries are lucky to

A revolution has begun by the people in the Middle East against their long time dictators. The domino effect began first with Tunisia then Egypt, Bahrain, Yemen, and Libya. Thousands of protestors were gathered on the streets with posters, shouting for change and democracy. Why would there be protests unless the people are unsatisfied with the way the country is governed. Why would they go against their dictator unless they feel they have no rights and that they have no voice. Unlimited power should never be given to one person; the chances of corruption are very high because power can change even the most virtuous individual. That is why the path of a dictatorial country is a path of strife, oppression and economical downfall.

The Arab spring has generated much controversy as a result of demonstrating that countries that were apparently peaceful were actually determined to remove their governments and install a new ideology that would be compassionate with regard to its people. Some nations actually went as far as to put oppressors down and to bring reform throughout their countries. However, it rapidly became clear that peace was far away when considering that new leaders were unable to satisfy people's needs and that the masses wanted to be provided with more power.

In 2013 in an unprecedented act, Saudi Arabia turned down a seat at the most influential table in the world, the UN Security Council. Saudi officials cited the international community’s lack of action in Syria as one of the reasons why they felt the need to make a stand by not accepting the coveted seat. Largely, Saudi Arabia blames Russia and China for protecting Assad from UN sanctions with their veto power that they have because they are two of the five permanent security council members along with the U.S., the UK, and France (McDowall, 2013).

In addition, the non-intervention by Saudi Arabia will be examined and this paper will attempt to determine why they have not become involved in the Syrian Civil War despite being a large power in

exits the JCPOA while simultaneously increasing unilateral targeted sanctions against the IRI. The U.S. deters Iran’s use of a nuclear weapon by proposing, negotiating, and entering a formal mutual defense alliance with Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) and other key partner nations. Use the newly created Gulf Defense Alliance (GDA) as the vehicle to extended nuclear deterrence. Offer a separate bilateral alliance with Israel, extending the same level of deterrence provided to the GDA. By means of the newly created alliances, execute deployment of ballistic missile defense systems. Engage in public and private diplomacy with the P5+1 partners to attempt to alleviate any potential concerns regarding any perceived threats to their security interests. Attempt to make clear the altruistic purpose of the newly established missile defense posture in the region. Persuade all GDA members to join the U.S.

Yemen has surprised the world with its unexpected collapse into war. Yemen has a great strategic value to nations vying for regional super power status, yet remains a cultural mystery to most of the Western World. The culture of Yemen and its key fundamentals will be addressed.

The United Arab Emirates, (UAE) is currently making a large impact in Yemen. The crowned prince of UAE’s capital Abu Dhabi , Sheikh Mohamed bin Zayed Al Nahyan, is focusing on helping Yemen. Sheikh, with the help of the Emirati military, hopes to: repair Yemen’s government, destroy the Houthi rebel movement, and secure the travel of resources, like oil, through the Bab al-Mandab Strait.  Although it seems that the UAE is striving to repair Yemen, the UAE is also benefiting from taking action in Yemen. The UAE government fears the extremists and terrorists surrounding the UAE, have expanded to Yemen, posing a great threat to the UAE. By taking action in Yemen, Sheikh and the UAE aim to cease the spread the extremists and terrorists beyond Yemen’s

Since Yemen was already considered a poor country, the conflict between the Republic of Yemen Government and the Houthi rebels made matters worse. This led to Saudi Arabia contributing to controversial air strikes with the intention to help reinstate President Hadi’s position in the government, which in-turn is responsible for a great portion of civilian deaths. Having the US involved to peacefully put an end to the war would help save many civilian lives. By doing so, the crises in Yemen can be resolved adequately, and allow for the nation to prosper and grow once more. The Republic of Yemen Government and Houthi rebels must come to a ceasefire and truce, but this may only be reached by the assistance of the United

In late 2010, a tidal wave of uprisings and protests in various parts of the Arab world emerged. It began with the Tunisian revolution when the martyr Mahmoud Bouazizi set fire to himself as a result of the deteriorating economic and social. This led to protests and demonstrations that ended with the fall of the ruling regime. In Tunisia which sparked the beginning of revolutions in many Arab countries, this is known as an Arab Spring. The question remains what are the real reasons that led to the Arab Spring and its effects? the causes of the Arabic spring May be varied, depending on the places, however the reasons can be a corruption in economic policies and demand social justice as the key motives and protests in the Arab world. This essay will discuss the most important reasons, and the effects of what is known as the Arab Spring.

In late 2010, a Tunisian named Bouazizi set himself on fire in protest against the poor economic situation in which he was living (CNN, 2011). Other Tunisians soon took the opportunity to resist their government and possible overthrow the leadership of Ben Ali. They took it as their responsibility to fight for the common good. Simple demonstration against the Tunisian government soon went ahead to an extent that Ben Ali had to leave the country. The events that followed the departures of the Tunisian president were the least expected. The revolts in Tunisia spurred citizens of other Arab nations to revolt against their governments. By the end of the years 2011, the Arab spring had claimed the presidency of three long serving presidents and

The new republican government was recognized by the Soviet Union and Egypt, but other western powers that had interests in Yemen such as the US and the UK, failed to disclose whether they supported the new Syrian government (Terrill and Army War College (U.S.) Strategic Studies Institute 54).

The Syrian Arab Republic is an Arab country in Western Asia, bordering Lebanon and the Mediterranean Sea to the West, Turkey to the North, Iraq to the East, Jordan to the South, and Israel to the Southwest. In March 2011, the Syria conflict has begun due to various reasons and is still going on today. This outbreak is one of the key factors which resulted the Arab Spring (Arab Uprising). Arab Spring refers to the democratic uprisings that arose independently and spread across the Arab world in 2011.
