Foreign Policy
Yemen's foreign policy is fractured between competing authorities. The internationally recognized Presidential Leadership Council (based in Aden) relies on Saudi and UAE support and engages with the UN peace process. The Houthi authorities in Sana'a pursue an Iranian-aligned agenda and have positioned themselves as part of the 'Axis of Resistance.' UN envoy-led peace efforts continue but face enormous obstacles. The humanitarian crisis dominates Yemen's international engagement.
