    Starting with the topic of coffee, Gao Yang finally got to the point.

    Although it is fake, Gao Yang definitely needs to start with a position that is consistent with his identity, and this requires understanding the background of the issue he wants to talk about. Of course, Gao Yang must have some understanding of the background of the chaos in Yemen, otherwise he would still have trouble coming.  What's the meaning.

    Overall, the situation in Yemen is very complicated, extremely complicated.

    First of all, Yemen only merged into one country from North Yemen and South Yemen in 1990. Although the merger was nominal, the Yemeni government has never really controlled the country.

    Even when the government was at its strongest, it never controlled more than 40% of the territory, and the tribes, large and small, simply did not compare to Yemen.

    Then, due to historical and religious reasons, Yemen¡¯s citizens have always been in a state of distrust and confrontation. A little more than half of the people are pro-Shah, and almost less than half of the people are pro-Iran, while Iran and Saudi Arabia  Ah, it is also a part of Yemen that spares no effort to support and tries to control a part of Yemen.

    ??Actually, to put it bluntly, Yemen is a pseudo-state that looks like a country, but is actually an aggregation of tribes.

    The storm in 2011 devastated Libya and also swept through Yemen. Former President Salih sadly stepped down and fled abroad for refuge, but Saleh escaped safely. This is much better than Gaddafi.

    After Saleh stepped down, Vice President Hadi took over. In fact, Hadi originally wanted to give up his job, but his resignation was rejected. He has to stay in office even if he does not want to be president.

    When things have developed to this point, it is time to involve the Houthi armed forces.

    The Houthi Armed Forces have actually existed for a long time. When Saleh was in sole control, the Houthi Armed Forces and Saleh were divided and combined. Sometimes they were allies and sometimes they were enemies. However, when Saleh stepped down, they were replaced by  Hadi, who represented another sect, came to power, and the Houthis, who were in a natural confrontation with Hadi, quickly restored a relatively friendly relationship with Saleh, at least they were no longer hostile.

    Now it is almost inevitable that the two major factions, or the two major forces, or the two major ethnic groups in Yemen will embark on the path of war. However, as long as a war breaks out in Yemen, it will not be settled quickly, even if one side wins.  No, unless one of the parties is completely dead, or both warring parties are dead at the same time.

    Because the war in Yemen is a very typical proxy war.

    For example, the Houthi armed forces are supported by Iran. It is unclear whether they are completely controlled by Iran, but it is certain that Iran's attitude affects the direction of the Houthi armed forces to a great extent.

    ??The current government, headed by Hadi, is controlled by the Shah.

    The proxy war will not stop even if the blood of the last Yemeni is shed until the big country behind it is ready to stop.

    The situation in Yemen is really super complicated, but it is precisely because the situation in Yemen is extremely complicated that it gives people like Gao Yang the opportunity to fish in troubled waters. If the situation in Yemen was very simple, then Gao Yang would not dare to make a fortune as a trader.  Of course, there is no need to come if there is money for war.

    Now Satan has come to Yemen and chosen the Houthi armed forces. Why did he choose the Houthi armed forces? It¡¯s just because the Iran behind the Houthi armed forces is poorer than the Shah.

    By standing on the side of the Houthi armed forces, you can eat the big ones, and you can bite the fat from the fat and oily Shah.

    If you side with Hadi, you will have to face Iran, which is a rip-off at best, so the choice is easy.

    ¡°But to control the Houthi armed forces, Iran must reduce Iran¡¯s control over the Houthi armed forces, and this is difficult to do.

    First of all, the role played by Gao Yang represents Russian power. In terms of national strength, Russia is of course stronger than Iran, but the problem is that Russia has never directly intervened and controlled the forces in Yemen. However, Iran is also a regional power and has always supported and influenced Yemen.  .

    Russia and Iran are allies, and Iran now relies on Russia for support. However, no matter how good the relationship between Russia and Iran is on a large level, or how important it is, each will definitely take care of their own interests in specific areas. This is  No need to say much at all.

    Russia's influence on Yemen is not too great. If it wants to really intervene in Yemen to fight for its own interests, it must compete with Iran. For Russia, the benefits it can obtain in Yemen are not worth ending up in person. It just needs to  Letting Iran, as an ally or younger brother, help us can achieve our goal.

    Therefore, it is unlikely that Russia will personally compete with Iran for Yemen, but Gao Yang isHe must pull the big flag and use the Russian envoy to contact the Houthi armed forces, otherwise he will have no chance at all.

    Gao Yang¡¯s identity is fake, so he lacks what a special envoy should really have, which is the support from the country behind him.

    It is not that difficult to compete with Iran for partial control of the Houthi armed forces.

    At this time, what is considered is the wisdom of people like Gao Yang and Yalebin. As long as the entire Yemen plan starts well, the rest will not be a problem. If the beginning is not done well, the rest of the plan can be abandoned.  .

    Putting down the coffee cup, Gao Yang looked at Abdullah, then smiled and said: "You know, I have a secret mission during this trip."

    It¡¯s time to get to the point. Everyone here is a stakeholder and a core figure. So after Gao Yang opened his mouth, the whole room immediately became very quiet, and even the sound of chewing stopped.

    Abdullah nodded slightly to show that he was listening carefully, but did not speak.

    Gao Yang pointed to himself, then to Abdullah, and then said softly: "You and our country have traditionally friendly relations."

    Abdullah put his hand on his chest, bowed slightly, and then nodded: "I agree with you. We have always had a very good and close relationship with your country."

    It seems that Abdullah is a man of few words. He only agreed with Gao Yang's words, but did not continue to follow the words. This is also good for Gao Yang, because he needs to throw out his bait as soon as possible to see if  It's attractive enough.

    Come up and show the benefits directly. This is what Gao Yang and Yalebin agreed upon, because any talk about this kind of thing is nonsense. Only the benefits are real. If there are any benefits, show them quickly. If there are no benefits, just get out.  No one is playing tricks on you on this matter.

    Gao Yang said calmly: "We can provide you with cash assistance of ten million US dollars, as well as a large amount of weapons and equipment."

    Ten million US dollars is an astronomical figure for ordinary people, but it is not too much for a huge force like the Houthi armed forces. However, this number is still more in line with the current generosity of Russia. There is no way, Russia is poor now.

    Sure enough, Abdullah said calmly: "Thank you for conveying your kindness, I am very grateful."

    He said he was very grateful, but his expression didn't mean that, so Gao Yang immediately said: "This is just the amount of the first batch of aid. Of course, there will be a second and third phase later, and it all depends on  Your needs have been met.¡± (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
