Abdullah bin Amer reveals the UAE’s role in the current phase and its close relationship with the Zionist enemy’s projects in the region
Follow-ups – Al-Khabar Al-Yemeni:
The Deputy Director of the Moral Guidance Department in the Sana’a government, Brigadier General Abdullah bin Amer, affirmed that the Emirati normalization path with the enemy entity is no longer confined to political and economic aspects but has evolved into a security and military partnership serving the American and Israeli agenda in the Gulf, the Red Sea, and the Horn of Africa.
Bin Amer explained, during statements to Al-Masirah TV, that the UAE and Saudi movements on the Yemeni coasts, Bab Al-Mandeb, and the Horn of Africa regions reflect efforts to build a regional security system that allows direct or indirect presence of the entity in vital sea lanes.
He pointed out that the UAE normalization agreement came to overcome the limited results of the Camp David agreement with Egypt, noting that popular rejection there prevented a wide breakthrough, prompting a search for alternative paths through the UAE.
He indicated that relations between Abu Dhabi and the enemy entity have witnessed rapid development, beginning with economic and commercial cooperation and extending to security and military coordination, affirming that tracking Emirati activity in Yemen and Africa shows intersections with Israeli goals.
He spoke about information regarding Israeli requests to establish bases in African countries through the UAE, in addition to its role in military operations in Yemen, considering this falls within a broader context serving American and Israeli projects in the region.
Regarding the tension with Iran, he said that Abu Dhabi sought to portray any Iranian response to American bases in the Gulf as a direct threat to the region’s countries, aiming to create a political environment allowing the expansion of Israeli presence and pushing for more escalatory stances.
He added that positions within some Gulf countries warned against being drawn into a confrontation with Iran, pointing to academic calls emphasizing the importance of avoiding escalation and maintaining regional relations.
He affirmed that activating independent regional cooperation is sufficient to reduce American and Israeli influence; however, he noted the continued Emirati role in supporting this influence, despite its negative repercussions on its image in the Arab street.
He noted that the UAE’s rise as a global financial center came with external support, with part of the investments linked to international networks and interests supporting the entity, considering that the roots of the relationship date back to the 1990s with regional support.
Regarding the Yemeni file, he pointed out that the rivalry between Saudi Arabia and the UAE in the south explains some recent security moves, including the rearrangement of influence within armed formations, affirming that this does not change the nature of the connection to the American-Israeli project.
He concluded by noting that current movements coincide with Israeli efforts to strengthen a military presence in Somalia and its surroundings, considering that the UAE plays the role of the facade for this expansion through its bases and movements on the coasts and islands.
