SANA'A December 26. 2022 (Saba) - The United States of America, the United Kingdom, the Zionist entity and the rest of the colonial Western European countries are striving to find a permanent foothold in the Red Sea, which is particularly important in international military and political strategies as one of the world's most important sea lanes linking the continents of Europe, Asia and Africa and controlling much of international trade, especially the oil trade.
This important waterway played a vital role during the Arab-Zionist wars, giving it great attention by the colonial Powers, which sought to assert their presence in it in multiple ways, most recently by forming the force of joint tasks "153", which included the Coalition of Multinational Naval Forces, from 34 States and its latest organizer, the Egyptian Naval Forces, by which America and the Zionist entity were pushed into the front of military operations in the Red Sea and Gulf of Aden under the name of combating terrorism, smuggling and countering illegal activities.
The Republic of Yemen enjoys exceptional importance for its important location overlooking the Red and Arab Seas and the first beginnings of the Indian Ocean and its full control of the Bab al-Mandeb Strait, this sensitive geopolitical location made it coveted by many colonial countries, past and present, and it has the second longest coastline in the Arab world, after Morocco, with a length of 2,200 km. Accordingly, Yemen remained the focus of the attention of the colonial Powers with a view to controlling its coasts and the Bab al-Mandeb strait. from the Persian Gulf towards Europe, in addition to commercial ships coming and going from Southeast Asia.
Today, the military presence of colonial powers in the Red Sea and in the vicinity of the Bab al-Mandeb Strait threatens the safety of navigation in this important waterway under false and unrelated pretexts. This presence has been dreamed up by colonial powers and looking for pretexts to find their footing in the Red Sea, with Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates as spearheads for their active presence in the Red Sea and the Gulf of Aden.
Finally, it did what it called joint task forces of 34 countries, and gave the task of leading these countries to the Egyptian Navy, where America, Britain and the Zionist entity pushed Egypt to the front of military operations in the Gulf of Aden and the Red Sea with flimsy justifications, such as tackling illegal activities and combating terrorism, which in fact are camouflage and fallacy, while the reality of the Western American military presence in the Gulf of Aden and the Red Sea is to cordon off the Yemeni coasts, to serve the interests of the colonial countries.
In view of those irresponsible colonial practices, Yemen's Minister of Defence, Major General Mohamed Nasser El-Atefy, confirmed in a recent statement that the Bab Al-Mandeeb Strait, Gulf of Aden, the Arab Sea, the territorial extension of the Socotra archipelago and the Yemeni Islands it is a Yemeni territory over which full sovereignty and security will be a priority. Colonial Powers must only realize this and make a thousand accounts for this responsible statement.
